Kelly's Quilt (Better than I hoped)
 
3 Attachment(s)
This is my attempt to emulate Lady-T's quilt posted 07-09-2013.
Mine is not as good as hers because the ric-rac made my fabric borders pucker. We live and learn I guess. I am a bit disappointed, but I am hoping the quilting will deal with it when the time comes. This little girl brightens my day each time I see her when going to school with my Grandson. She is cheeky, has freckles and Auburn hair. She reminds me of myself at age 8. I hope she will like it, it's a surprise for her.

That is darling. Love your appliques.

Any little girl would love this...especially a cheeky one with freckles and auburn hair! I think your concerns about puckers will disappear when it's been quilted and washed.

Adorable! Kelly is a very lucky girl!

twinkie 07-14-2013 03:10 AM

No matter what you say, we are our own worst critic. I think it looks great.

Q9patch72 07-14-2013 05:52 AM

I like it and I'm close to 60. It's the thought and love that counts, in my opinion

red-warrior 07-14-2013 06:01 AM

I bet kelly loved it ....don"t be so hard on yourself!

cpcarolyn 07-14-2013 06:16 AM

Sweet quilt.

carolynjo 07-14-2013 06:26 AM

Knowing that rick rack shrinks, I wash it and any zippers that I am going to use and dry in the dryer. Yes, they do have to be pressed, but there is no shrinkage afterwards.

OldHairTwister 07-14-2013 07:20 AM

That is truly a girly girl quilt. I can just see the auburn hair and freckles peeking out of the top of that quilt.

MargeD 07-14-2013 07:29 AM

How could she not like it - it's so cute and I love the appliqued flowers.

klgls 07-14-2013 08:27 AM

Oh, I really like it!!! Ric-rac looks great!
