Anyways, i wanted to make a nice quilt for gemma's room. I had a freebie small jelly roll from an online store, and i used a nice pink from my stash for the cornerstones, and a quick trip to walmart found a very dark grey for sashing, and a border with two shades of gray - there was also a smattering of gray in the jelly roll.
The pink certainly softens the quilt !
I have added a picture of my 3rd granddaughter gemma elizabeth

the quilt is great but the baby is greater i would just love to snugle next to her she is adorable.thanksfor sharing the pictures.

WOW, what a beautiful, peaceful baby. Love the way you got so much bang for your buck and created such a wonderful quilt. Thanks for sharing.

Gemma is a little doll! She kind of steals the show here, but the quilt is very attractive. It would not have occurred to me to use gray in a baby quilt, and it certainly adds a note of sophistication to a traditional pattern, doesn't it!
