BEAUTIFUL CREAM!

I am painting all my darker pieces, CREAM....it is very calming!
What used to be black is now CREAM!
This fancy frame is now a beautiful mirror...it is pretty, even if is missing some of its details....
And yes, I am remaking the quilt from yesterday's post....I am using the same background for the entire quilt including the borders...what do you think? I bought 6 yards of it at our local store, and didn't even realize it is a piece from Blackbird Designs until when I got home and started cutting....plus, I bought it off the sale table for $1.99 per yard...YES, $1.99 per yard.....SCORE!!!

$1.99 a yard??? What a DEAL!

I've really enjoyed seeing all the redecorating and painting that you have been doing! You almost have me convinced to do a little painting around here.

That's awesome $1.99 a yard, even better that it's Blackbird Design fabric, good for you finding such a bargain. Your blocks look really nice.
