With
my newest little granddaughter here, I knew I had to get her baby quilt
finished
I
had some pieces left from another project, and it was just enough to make this
darling quilt
This fabric was from
a Daisy Kingdom line that I got for $1.00 a yard when it went on clearance. It
is actually dress fabric for little girls. I cut apart the striped fabric that
was meant for the skirt of the dress, and incorporated it into the border.
This little quilt is
for Sydney, our latest granddaughter, and since she came into the world early
she is very small. I avoided using cotton batting by Warm and Natural, since it
would be a little too much weight on her, so I used a polyester batting by
Morning Glory. It made the quilt so light and fluffy.
This batting was so
nice to hand quilt through. I pieced yellow sashing strips and used a
coordinating fabric for the blocks.
Here you can see a
close up of the adorable fabric I used. It has little paper dolls all around
the border.
The newest addition
to our family, little Sydney! She is our tiny angel! What a beautiful gift from
God!
Awe, so precious...and such a lovely blanket.
