Grandmother's Fan

I finished my Grandmother's Fan quilt.  It is pink and feminine and I love it. The quilt was shown in Leisure Arts Big Book of Best Loved Quilts. As soon as I saw it, I wanted it. The fans are made of Floral scraps. I used paper piecing to have all the fans blades the same. I appliqued the fans onto the white squares.  I don't win prizes for curved seams. The plain pink squares have fans and roses quilted in them.  I do my quilting by hand.  I used a hoop rather than my frame because there was a lot of quilting. I even scalloped the edges.
