Baby Quilt!
Some of you know what happened right after I started quilting a year and a half ago. I was finishing the binding on my very first quilt, for out_of_mana 's daughter Elora who was a preemie, when I read her post that Elora had passed away. I never finished it, and started a second quilt for her son Connor, who was stillborn. I swore I would never make another quilt for a baby, and actually hadn't until this week finished any quilting project, only blocks - I have 30 tops started, but one finished.
I have finally decided that I need to finish these quilts. Some will be donated in honor/memory on angel days and some will go to new babies that are coming. I have a lot of quilting to do! Next up is a friend from elementary school, and then I've gotta start on mandella0021 's if I'm going to get it done before baby E gets here.
Being held up by my friend Sarah at her shower! I made it big as baby boy (as yet unnamed) has 4 older sibs who will want to cuddle, i'm sure. Quilt is about 52" square, with machine applique star blocks in the middle squares of the irish chain pattern. Inner border is the blue print (both are same print in a different color) and outer border is a 3" piano key.
Stay tuned for more shower pics!
