The ladies are progressing slowly. They are getting dressed in all their finery and jewels. They might even be ready to face the world soon. At least, this aqua beauty is.

I started this top in a Jan Mullen Class at Quilt symposium 2007. I loved the shapes and colours of the original Dressez quilt. The collection was based around some dainty florals I found at Fabric Barn, while it was still in Porrirua. I could just imagine them as sweet frocks for taking tea in, so Frocks it is.

The boarders are finished and the ladies are discussing their backs as ladies do To keep the simplicity, I'm heading towards a bagged quilt with simple knots and silhouettes. The back is to be either cotton aqua print and flannel lining, or mint green blanket. What do you think?
