Little clusters of yoyo flowers on the vine...
....and a plain yoyo in the centre of each 'pinwheel'
As usual I'm undecided as to how to quilt it. I had thought of some simple hand quilting in some bold Perle cotton but the colours I want are just not available in our little craft shop here so plan 'B' might be to hand quilt it in normal quilting cotton or plan 'C' to have a combination of both machine and hand quilting. So what do you think??? Your thoughts are most welcome!! I still have some bliss fabric and yoyo's leftover to play with so stay tuned for some coordinating decor to go with this quilt.
Oh and the month of May just happens to be my blogiversary of 2 years which nicely coordinates with "Sew Mama sew's" Mayday giveaway happening on Monday 23rd so be sure to come back to help me celebrate with some goodies to giveaway!!

Wow Catherine. It looks great! Well done!
That is so lovely, really it is. I do think hand quilting would be lovely, especially with all the embellishments. Have you tried using DMC thread?? that might work.
You've done a wonderful job on it, I like the added applique on the border and the yoyo's, very pretty!
i do like the swirvy vine...
Wow wow wow! It looks stunning at a distance but then the detail is incredible. I love the vines. I don't know how you do it!
You have done a fabulous job. I think Perle thread would look great with your fabrics. Great stamina making and sewing all those yo-yos.
