Beautiful Fabric from India - Pieced by Elizabeth

My friend Elizabeth works with a lady who was on a trip to India and brought back fabric for Elizabeth to make into a quilt for her.  Now thinking about it, I may have the story a bit backwards and maybe the lady brought the fabric for Elizabeth and she, decided to make it into a quilt for her co-worker friend.  I'll try to set the story right when I get together with Elizabeth and can pick her brain a bit more - nothing like telling an upside down story.  Sheesh - Sorry Elizabeth!

Elizabeth did an awesome job coordinating these beautiful fabrics into a wonderful quilt and what a great keepsake of her trip to India.

 There was a fair amount of blank space that was just calling out for some custom quilting.  As well the fabric just kept on speaking to me as if I was on a mission.   The back definitely shows off the quilting better than the front and the sheen of the backing fabric showcases the fun I had quilting this beauty.
