 What do you do when your Little Sis falls in love with the new fabric line from Poppie Cotton called Dots & Posies?  Well, you make her a quilt!

The pattern was one I found on a tutorial given by Jenny Doan of Missouri Star Quilt Company https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKSm9pBL2qM&t=14s

As Little Sis saw the new fabric line on The Stitching Room in Utah's website, and I just so happen to work there, I was able to get what I needed before we sold alot of the fabric.  And boy, is this fabric going fast!  https://www.thestitchingroominutah.com/

I used a large border on the quilt as the yellow gingham was Little Sis's favorite one in the line.  However, the backing is gorgeous as well.  It has muted polka dots and large roses.  I think Little Sis liked this line because it is reminiscent of country living, soft looking old fashioned prints, AND her middle name is Rose!  Hence the quilt bears her name.  The quilt finished at approximately 67" x 74".

I quilted an edge to edge design that I call "Pin Curls" as it just seemed to fit the vintage looking prints.  I love this quilt and may have to make another one with a different line of fabric.

Here's wishing you all peace, comfort, and joy in your lives.

The border was cut at 8 1/2" to highlight the fabric print.

The green really does "pop".

I named this quilt for Little Sis - "Leah Rose"
