Baby quilt finished!

...don't you just LOVE getting an inviation just one week prior to the event?

Fortunately, I started planning this quilt when I learned my niece was pregnant (this baby makes me a great-aunt!!!) but I honestly didn't expect the shower to be until mid-December since she isn't due until January....

I had most of, but not all of, the blocks done...and I didn't even have the backing fabric....so a trip to the QS was in order, and several evenings and one Saturday of embroidering blocks, and marathon piecing and quilting. I managed to finish it in time for my niece's baby shower on Sunday and *thankfully* I didn't have to stay up all night working on it.

Anyway, she loved it and that's the main thing :)

Beautiful, Irene. Simply beautiful. I'm so glad you didn't use brown and avocado. If just One more mama-to-be chooses those colors, I'm just going to throw up my hands and walk away. Actually, I've just ignored them and made what I know babies like. Polly

I love it Irene.

My next quilt to make will be a baby quilt. The baby isn't due until May so I should have plenty of time to get some 'brights'.

I was just getting ready to cut fabric for a yellow brick road focusing on happy frogs and turtles fabric. Today the grand-ma to be came to ask me if I would put an angel in the quilt, a cowboy angel. Because little Colton must surely have an angel watching over him to get him this far along with all of his complications. So I am putting that fabric away and doing a YBR cowboy style.

It's lovely Irene; just right with all those pretty bright colours. I like your corners too. I made an alphabet one once and it is fun thinking what to put in the corners. Your sun and moon are the best I've seen (I did boring ships, for some reason!) . In message , IMS@?.?.invalid writes
