Mum's vintage fabric

When I was back home in July, mum gave me a little scrap of fabric. 

I took home my orange and turquoise blocks that I'm working on so it was just right. 

It's a scrap from the first dress mum ever made when she was 14 or 15, so about 60 years ago. 

I've added it to my quilt - you'll see the soft turquoise colour with the horses and carriage. 

This quilt is destined for our bed, so it's very special.
