Victoriana is at its best with every element- from a delightful pair of doves perched within the branches of a tree, laden with silk ribbon roses and flowers and the irresistibly perfect touch-- tied with a bow, to the elaborate frame that surrounds this little motif. I had been saving this motif, inspired by a very pretty calling card, until the ideal setting occurred to me. Once again, a small piece of Yuwa fabric came to the rescue. Deep rich reds, gray greens and gold in the left and right insets determined the color palette for this project and the exquisite roses within the print inspired the frame.

     The wallhanging measures 20” x 24” and once mine is quilted, I will be placing it in a frame for hanging. If you are not keen on a wallhanging the center motif would make a great addition to any album quilt.
