Show and Tell

Here it is, my submission for Doll Quilt Swap 4. I used a pattern called "Orange Slices" by Me & My Sister Designs. It's about 17.5" square. This little quilt is probably the squarest, least imperfected, and easiest to bind quilt I have made thus far. I really hope the recipient likes it as much as I do! The only thing I have left to do is to add the label to the back, which I will try and do sometime today. That means it will be on its way either Saturday or Monday, depending on when I can make it over to the post office.

Not only did I quilt and bind the doll quilt yesterday, but I also made the remaining four blocks for my mom's quilt. Here is all six of them together:



Today I hope to make my quilt square for Spring Fling Round Robin 2 and continue stitching the squares together on the "layer cake" quilt top. I'll be sure and report back later to tell you how it's going.

What a lovely quilt. Very nice colour combo. I have still to get started on mine but it's not going very far this time!

What a lovely little piece of art. I love the way the quilting shines on the back too. A nice repeat of the pattern on the front.
