What an absolutely adorable quilt! I'd echo the shapes.

Beautiful. I would keep the quilting simple.

LOVE the quilt, and I agree with this idea:

The circles and square are still the focal points, but it gives interest to the solid background.

very cute quilt and nice choice of colors!

I love the layout and fabrics you chose, it's simply adorable.
Thougts for the quilting... I would quilt it a mediium density (a happy medium between soft and durable), I would then search high and low for a gray/pink/white varigated thread and minky backing, then quilt it in an all-over design with large concentric rectangles and cirlcles overlapping each other. If I couldn't find the varigated thread, I would consider using solid threads of all three colors. Please do share with us what you end up doing. |
The quilt is SEW cute. I like the idea of circles all over. Let us see the after pictures please. Thanks for sharing.

I read the pink and zebra before I acutally saw the quilt and was excited. Seeing the quilt cofirms my excitment! What a happy and cute quilt. If I were going to quilt this cutie, I would do circles in circles in circles all over in a random pattern, even inter- crossing some of them so they look like bubbles.
Love what you have done. peace |

Pretty! I'm not a big fan of a lot of quilting. I would stitch in a ditch around everything and smaller and smaller circles inside the circles.

Love the quilt. Start with stitch in the ditch first and see what it does for the quilt. I personally am not for heavy quilting. I feel it takes away from the design. One step at a time.

I won't be any help but just wanted to say that is one super cute quilt.
