I'm feeling very proud of myself - a whole, real live, quilt - all finished, by me :) I've fiddled, collected fabric, and dabbled in the quilting thing, but this is the first one I've started and finished :)
... and a close up
It is for a friend's baby - well, the sister of a friend - she is part of our Wednesday morning Womens' Group. As I was finishing hand-stitching the binding on last night I got a phone call to say she was in labour - so the baby should have arrived by now.
As always, thanks for looking. Thanks also for all the comments on my last finishes!
I meant to say in that last post - that little "Quick Stitch" had 87 colours in it!!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful week :)

What a lovely quilt Lisa. And don't you just love making those little squares.... you have done yourself proud.
Its gorgeous Lisa, well done :) The colours are just wonderful, bright and cheery. So have you caught the quilting bug yet, lol.
It's beautiful Lisa - I'm being inspired from all sides recently to get back into a bit of patchwork. My machines are at Bernina getting an overhaul this week and then I'll have no excuse!
You should be feeling extremely proud Lisa - it's a beautiful quilt. I hope the Mum and new baby are doing well.
Wow! That's so lovely, I've only just starting to learn about patchwork and I am in awe! :)
You did an awesome job of that quilt - it's beautiful. Way to go! :D
Wow, wish I could quilt! I bet the baby's family will just love that. :)
Zowie, Lisa! What an adorable quilt for one lucky little baby! Congrats. :D
Fantastic job on the quilt - its gorgeous!
Hope new Mum and baby are doing great!
That is such a beautiful quilt - I love all the bright colours for a baby instead of the usual pastel shades. Fantastic work!!!
