Grandma's Bed Sheets and borrowed Polka Dots

Some month ago ( maybe even a year or two) a friend of mine made this polka dot quilt and I had to make one too. So I collected polka dot fabrics. The white background fabric are bedsheets that my German friends shared with me. 

I love this quilt, it is so happy and bright. 

I did some hand embroidery on the inside of the polka dotted squares. 

The pattern is from a quilting stencil. 

I just did an all over meander on this quilt,

 since I wanted to avoid having stitches in the embroidery parts. 

I had to borrow some polka dot fabric from my neighbor since I wanted to make this border but ran out of my stash.
