I wanted to do something different, not only from my normal, but also something unexpected from the quilting blog-o-sphere.
So here is my Dresden Project..
The center of each Dresden scallop is a fabric rose, and the scallops have been quilted. I am very pleased with the results, and am so glad I decided to experiment :)
Now, if only I had been able to get dresden #2 finished...
A HUGE thank you to Mdm Samm from Sew We Quilt, and Christine from Quilt monster in my closet for Hosting, and cheering on, this Blog Hop!!

What a beautiful bunting! I completely understand. DH had the flu with a horrible cough! He felt like someone ran him over with a truck and coughed horribly! The cough hung in there for two weeks. I THINK he is finally not coughing but it was a slow fade away thing.
What a fun banner - perfect for Valentine's.
What a gorgeous bunting!!! Great idea!
The embroidery is going to be beautiful, too!
Nice experiment - keep up the good work.
Love the bunting!!
