| Finally, I get to make a mess! Well, really, it's a quilt. It's a baby quilt for my new grand niece. She's due any day now. |
 |
| It's sewn together on the sewing machine. |
 |
| Then I quilted it together by hand with embroidery thread. |
 |
| This is the back side. I love the digital effect. |
 |
In process |
 |
| The front is linen. |
 | |
| I used a floral skirt and beige pants. The beige pants were actually really nice but had a pleated front - such a shame. The stripes are from a pair of XL capri pants. Another monstrosity taken off the street. You're welcome. |
 |
| The backing is a really soft flannel. |
 |
| I sewed around the inside of each square with different colored thread. |
 |
| I wish I had only used dark colors but I'm not unhappy with it over all. |
 |
| It's the quickest quilt I've ever made. I made the whole thing in less than a week. I'd love to see it after it's been washed a few times. I think (and hope) it will age really nicely. |
