I finished this quilt almost a year ago but thought it would be fun to share it with everyone again.
This is my 4th or 5th quilt which was made for my 4th daughter's 1st birthday. I love the pink/brown combination and used some of my hoarded fabrics that I had been hanging onto for awhile. It was quite difficult for me to come up with the color combination in this quilt. I got out all of my pinks and laid them next to each other trying to figure out what solid color I wanted to use for the focus blocks. I must of had those piles of pink fabric laying on the floor for a month before I finally decided on brown.
I really enjoyed quilting this quilt and learned a lot. I decided that the stippling was much too small and close together. I think it took around 8 hours to quilt the whole thing and it's only a 45" square. I also learned that I really liked quilting. I was so proud of myself after I had finished it and then washed and dried it. It looked so cool coming out of the drier all wrinkly and pretty.
I'm looking forward to making many more quilts. My daughters have all requested one of their own. So far, I have finished one more quilt and am working on another.
It sure is cute! The fabrics are darling and that color combo is perfection.
