A Modern Baby Quilt

Some dear friends of ours recently had another baby boy! With a little Pinterest sleuthing, I was able to determine the colors the happy momma had in mind. I am quite pleased with how this turned out:

The back is a print I got at IKEA a few years ago. I sure wish I had bought every last yard of it! I quilted this in a random grid with little loops thrown in here and there. I am pleased with the quilting though it did require removing the quilt from the frame and reloading it halfway through to get the lines going in the other direction. It was definitely worth the extra work. The quilting lines are about 1/2″ apart.

Until next time….

    That speaks volumes.
    Not sure how I began receiving your emails recently????

    I quilt a little but too busy to get serious. Have made 3 but definitely not professional but I love them all.
