Thank you! I'm learning a lot while making these - both about quilting and about my machine! I've had my fair share of "d'Oh!" moments! I usually write down what I have all my settings at, shut it all down and go do something else for a while, then come back and figure it out. And it's usually something stupid (Like the tension was wrong, or the feed dogs needed reset, or I had the spool on backwards, lol)

Very sweet and cuddly. Well done.

I love the combination of the Chenille dots and the circles and dots around the stars on the facing side. Clever!

LoupEsprit 12-03-2012 11:51 AM

I have to confess, I didn't 'choose' the fabrics. I thought it would be cheaper to buy a kit, as opposed to buying the fabric seperately like I did with the last one. Boy did I not figure that one right! The last quilt cost me about $30 in material, this one was $20 for the kit. The other one is 32x42, this one is only 24 x 32!

Again, a d'Oh! moment that I have learned from! This one did go together a lot faster with just the square blocks, but I wish it were bigger. Oh well! It'll make a good Car-seat quilt for him, as her kids arent' the type to lug around blankets for long.
