I realized that I had never posted about Little Henry's quilt.
My goddaughter and husband had this little man the day after my birthday.
Henry was born at 30 weeks and has been in the NICU since his birth.
All is going as well as it can go
and Henry is growing and getting stronger.
After he was born,
I was able to deliver his quilt to his mom.
For some reason I didn't take a photo of the finished quilt...
only the back.
My goddaughter had picked this pattern a while ago
and we were able to go fabric shopping together.
This was before the Deco QAL began!
(My floors are not orange! For some reason the
color of just the flooring is off.)
As I was quilting and praying over this quilt,
I added some hearts and some
words to the quilting.
They are little hidden messages.
This batik made an awesome backing!
I may have to go back and get more of this.
Welcome to the world, Henry!!
Happy Quilting!
