My student, Stephanie, has been an only child for 19 years. Last week, her baby sister was born. She is, I think, the most excited big sister in all of history. We've been making lots of baby crafts together this year, and she begged me again and again to make a baby quilt for her little sis. I asked her for inspiration, and she gave me "pink ladybugs and their fly trail." Here's the result:
My first time doing applique correctly - with iron on interfacing! It was fun!
I went with a loopy free motion quilting pattern this time - perfect for that "fly trail" that Stephanie requested.
The special label!
Here's Stephanie, excited to deliver the quilt to little Angelina!
In case it's not clear - I love you, Stephanie! Angelina is the luckiest sister ever.
If you have an idea for a mini quilt, there's still time to enter in my Mini Quilt Giveaway! Contest closes at 5pm tomorrow!
love the quilt but I am wondering if there is a pattern to this so I can make it for a friend of mine.
