Finished!!!
 
1 Attachment(s)
I just finished a baby quilt that I am making for a close friend's first grandbaby. Very different from my "straight line" quilts I have made in the past and the first quilt I have made as a gift, (not counting my kids). Also got a wild hair and tried free motion quilting for first time. My squiggles aren't perfect but wasn't sure what to do with the circles. Very relieved it is finished, but please don't look too close....far from perfect. I made a decision years ago that my sewing is for fun and will never be close to perfect.

What a neat fun quilt. Great to teach baby colors. The different quilting styles give a nice texture to different areas of the quilt.

Love your quilt and love the way you think. I sometimes really agonize over my decisions and that does take the fun out of the day. Great job. Love your FMQ.

This is an awesome quilt! I have been so afraid of circles. Does this pattern have a name? Thank you.

Pollytink 04-14-2013 02:29 PM

P.S. do you remember what the backing fabric is...all the fabrics are perfect!! And what size is it?

The pattern ins called "Circles for Paige", it was in the January/February 2013 issue of Fons & Porter Love of Quilting magazine. I found the backing fabric at Hobby Lobby, not sure of name, but along selvage it says Brother Sister Design Studio B53-EW!-P14. Thanks for all your kind words.
