Fortune Cookie Inspired Quilt

The fortune cookie read: "Don't let what you don't have stop you from using what you do have."



I'd been looking for the perfect fabric for a baby quilt and decided instead to use fabrics in my stash. You can see the results - last photo:

I remember your telling us about that 'fortune'! The quilt is lovely - so pretty, and ideal for a baby. . In message , Witchy Stitcher writes

Very pretty! Had to look at your other quilts while I was there.... you've done some exceptional quilts! Love the colors in your latest one though - lucky baby!

Very pretty! I'm feeling a little juvenile these days- can I have it? (Attempting my first rather clumsy beg)

I like the quilting too !..Did you do that too????...Mary

How wonderful! I love how it turned out! Good for you for listening to your fortune cookie - good fortune to be sure!

Yes - I have a New Joy Frame and did it on that. It's a panto.

I can't imagine that any other fabrics could make the quilt any more perfect! Sometimes... we do best when we "make do"!
