The Baby Sister Quilt is Done!



The Baby Sister Quilt is Done!

One of my readers said this looked like "strawberry shortcake" 
and I think this is a good name for this quilt.  
There are even some scrap charms of Strawberry Shortcake fabric in there.  
So I am calling this quilt ... 


"Strawberry Shortcake"

The Quilting Details

I quilted this one with straight line quilting on my home machine.
The drop fee mechanism on my machine is still not working right.
I love straight line quilting.


This is the Big Sister Quilt.

When I made this 


in February and decided it was destined for a pink loving little girl,
 my daughter's niece by marriage.
  Then I learned that there was a new baby sister on the way and decided that I needed to make a baby sister pink and white quilt
made with some of the leftover squares and fabrics.


 Since the first quilt  had a X and O on a white background for the backing,


my quilty muse decided this new quilt must have an X and O, too,
on the pieced backing.


I made an easy half-snowball X and O for the baby quilt.


I hope these lovely little girls enjoy their quilts!

My backyard is looking a bit different than it did when ...


I finished the first quilt!


 It is a lot nicer for taking quilty pictures. 


and sitting out side


I cleaned and "de-furred" the quilts again for gifting.
Butterfly helped.


Katniss helped.

Eventually I got as much fur off as is possible with two cats 
shedding in the hot summer.


All packed and ready to go!


 Time for our next project!

Katniss agrees.
