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!

that is a nice baby quilt - I heard today that I might need to be making one for late in the year and maybe two! sounds like I am going to be a great-grandma
Beautiful love the way you quilted it
Happy mother s day
Your feathers look really nice!!
I love this little quilt! The colors and prints all look so nice together. Your design is fun. I did a little searching and found the quilted dragonflies. Your quilting looks awesome.
The quilt design is great! I love these fabrics and your quilting looks fantastic. How did you manage with the carpal tunnel?
What a pretty quilt and I love the stacked feather quilting in the border.
This quilt is so pretty. I really love the movement your fabrics give this quilt.
Great job on the quilting! I love the feather border and the way you quilted little dragonflies throughout the interior!
