New York Blooms



I received the Subway fabric yesterday which Helen very kindly sent on to me so I was able to add the first set of borders to this piece and then went on to a lovely rich magenta/pink solid for a very narrow border, I am so pleased with the way this fabric brings out the pink in the blooms and the colour in the subway fabric, but sadly this photo is not doing it justice. I will take another shot tomorrow and see how that turns out - it was fine on my camera and when I downloaded so don't know why it is dulled down like this!!!

However, at least you can see I am now making progress! Have a lovely weekend.

Blooms are wonderful. When you click and enlarge you can see that the subway fabric really was the right choice for the blooms.

Thank you all for very welcome comments- I will try another photo today to see if I can get the true colour of the pink fabric
