Another Baby Girl Quilt

This is a quilt I just finished, it measures 42"x42" and I had originally looked at "Lady of the Lake" from 101 Fabulous Rotary-Cut Quilts by Judy Hopkins and Nancy J. Martin.  But then I decided I didn't want to mess with all the triangles.  However the "Lady of the Lake" is very pretty and one day I will tackle it.

The quilt is completely from my stash! (Fabric look familiar?) Needs to have a back and be quilted, after that you'll see it again!  I was just too excited about it and couldn't wait that long to post it.

It's not the most difficult quilt I have made or seen, but I learned so much from doing this quilt.  And I think it is so cute! I love it.

Up close to show the colors.  The pink border has small white dots and the green has small white dots too.

I am in the middle of reading "The Quilting Answer Book" by Barbara Weiland Talbert and it is extremely helpful.  It has answers to questions I would have never thought to ask.  I recommend it.

So my goal for yesterday was to finish this quilt..which didn't happen because we went to purchase an attic fan! The more and more I get into my adult life I realize there are things that I never thought I cared about before and now I'm just thankful to have them.  Thing #1 Deep Freeze, Thing #2 Attic Fan.  Who knew right?

So today my goal is to finish another baby quilt top...and I have yet to cut out the fabric! Yikes!

You'll hear from me tomorrow :)

Good day to all!!
