Dragonfly Baby Quilt Finish

 This top has been waiting patiently for me to quilt it.
I don't have a long arm and quilt smaller quilts on my
domestic machine.
It isn't something that I love to do and really need to be
in the mood before I begin quilting.
 
Yesterday was the day for this quilt.
Unfortunately, I was awake before 5am today
(thank you carpal tunnel syndrome!), 
so got up and finished this little quilt.
 
 

 

This is one I designed with leftover parts from another quilt.
The colors are all washed out in this photo,
but more true in the next photo.




I had fun quilting little dragonflies in the middle
and feathers along the edge.
One never knows how the feathers will look
from one day to the next,
but yesterday was a good day!



A backing was pieced from some leftover squares...
something I really dislike doing,
but does give it more interest.
 
 

This baby quilt is going to a dear friend of my daughters
who is due soon.
 
 
Happy Quilting!
