    Default a portrait baby quilt
    The Mommy wanted a quilt the baby could use, as opposed to a wall hanging, so I did alot of quilting on this Cut Work Portrait. I added scraps of the backing/binding fabric as "taggies" along the edges, in varied sizes and lengths, randomly spaced. This is Adrianna.

    It is adorable! I have never seen a baby quilt quite like that. I am amazed how someone can capture the likeness of a person with pieces of fabric. You are truly an artist.
