  1. I like the beads and the charms on the quilt. I never thought to use them but it looks beautiful. I learnt how to make pinwheels once to attach to pillow cushions. Don't ask me how to make them again, I forgot. I came earlier but you didn't have your post up yet. Ya, I was up early today :) Have a great day!

  2. Hi Frederique! Oh, I love those buttons and even more, the beads. I've never really embellished a quilt other than with pieces of fabric for a baby to pull and chew on. What a fun post! ~smile~ Roseanne

  6. Thank you for reminding me to embellish! Sequins, beads, embroidery stitching and silk ribbon flowers I have used in the past too, but only in crazy quilting. I must try embellishing decorative quilts more. I had forgotten about it!
