Finished the first quilt for 2008: a bright version of an "eye spy" quilt based on the pattern for Night and Day on my site. This one was actually fun to piece, though the stitch-in-the ditch quilting was boooring...I almost NEVER do such simple quilting, but this quilt begged me for it. I did a little extra "surprise" for this one too: with two older brothers, baby Alexander's quilt is a good chance to play Eye Spy games with brothers Nick and Ollie. So, I included cutouts of some of the novelty prints in a fabric "envelope" tucked into the label on the back. Take a look and feel free to copy this idea: Mom Karen was thrilled both with the quilt and with the extras.
