Well readers I finally finished Lilly's quilt ready for her 1st birthday party which I hosted at my home on Saturday for Lilly and 50 of her close friends.
The weather started off raining cats and dogs and blowing a gale, but fortunately the sun came out for around 2 hours and allowed the children to play on the bouncy castle.
Below are a couple of pictures of Lilly in her birthday frock and the finished quilt.
Her bedroom is decorated in lemon and pink and I tried to incorporate these into the quilt.
Being still considered a novice at quilt making, this was one of the more complicated (for me) quilts to make, and the topstitching seemed to take for ever, but I am really pleased with the result.
I have backed it in a lovely soft brushed cotton, ideal for those days when you need a quilt to cuddle up with.
I hope you are all sewing up a storm, until next time, catch you later.............................
