My new granddaughter, Katherine Anne, was born on Feb. 22, 2010 to my son Ben and his wife Heather. Heather shares my love of Dick and Jane readers and has quite a collection too. I've been collecting the Dick and Jane fabrics for awhile and promised that the first baby would get a quilt made with these fun fabrics. Here is the quilt which was actually finished before the baby was born since she was two weeks late :-).
The quilt was machine and hand quilted:
The centre pinwheel:
This border print is just so much fun!
One of the larger squares. The pattern is from Quilt's #78 Patchwork Quilting magazine from summer 2007.
It's wonderful! Congrats on the newest addition to your family.
ReplyDeleteThose fabrics are such fun.
Your new grand-daughter is "well-loved" with her new quilt. It is a fun quilt with lots to look at.
