My first finished quilts (cont)
#30
Its from a book called Easy Machine Quilting edited by Jane Townswick. There are a couple of those quilts in there I plan to do including one called Illusion. But the machine quilting on top is a bit more advanced than I am now so I'm content to wait and work my way up to it.
What's so easy about the baby quilt is that it is done with foundation piecing. Trace the design and follow the lines. Makes it easy to sew straight. I ended up stitching the ditch without thinking about it but now I realize, with the charm tacks in the middle of each square, I think I didn't have to. But since I did those by hand and not machine I probably was smart to stitch it first.
