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. http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/...66907372hRphlY Anyway, she loved it and that's the main thing -Irene |

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.

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'.

Baby quilt finished!
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.
