A couple of Littles helped me show off the latest baby quilt I finished for our 10 month old granddaughter. I joked around that I hoped I would complete it before her first birthday and I made it! This was a string quilt called Spider Web made from bits and pieces from my scrap bag. I got the pattern idea here where there's a pretty good tutorial. Each scrap of fabric holds a tiny memory from all of us -- old shirts, handmade skirts and dresses, blankets and aprons. There are so many fun prints in this quilt that it could be considered an "I Spy Quilt" too. I hope she enjoys many hours with it -- making it into a super hero cape or a tent or just a cuddly place to nap. God bless you little Hunny Bunny.
That is gorgeous, Jody! And to think you made that "all in secret," without mentioning all the hours you must have spent accomplishing this beautiful gift. A family heirloom for sure, it goes without saying. I wish I were better at gushing... <3
ReplyDeleteOh Little Hunny Bunny is blessed indeed! What a gorgeous quilt, Jody!
ReplyDeleteI love it!
That is fabulous! The little one is lucky to be wrapped in so much love and memories.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lot of work (and love)went into your pretty little quilt. Hunny Bunny is a very lucky little one.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like an intense bunch of quilting! So beautiful! And all the little scraps of memories. What a treasure! :)
ReplyDeleteOh what fun to have all those fabrics in it. It looks great. Congrats on finishing before her first birthday!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet quilt Jody -- it's perfect! I love that you used some scraps that have meaning in your quilt. You're way ahead of me -- I'm hoping to get my baby quilt done by the second birthday LOL!
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss this? Oh Yeah, I was with my grand-schnoogims! Jody, I love all that color and even how you added it in the border. What a treasure for Lil' Miss C!
