It's still un-named, and unbound - but it'll be getting bound in a dark pink. If anyone has some name suggestions I'm open for a name. :) I'm leaning towards Cheerful Garden for the name, but I'm not sure.
My mom went to AC Moore for something for Christmas and called me and said, "They have fabric, I picked you up something round." I had no idea, but it was a Fabric Expressions jelly roll. Since Mom doesn't quilt or like working with fabric this was so impressive. :D I decided to whip up a lap quilt with it. I'm so happy with how it came out! My DD picked out the backing fabric - it's actually leftover seersucker from when I made her a dress. The quilt is 40"x40" and I didn't have a pattern, I just made it up as I went along. I had a few issues with the FMQ - the thread kept breaking, but it might have just been the June Taylor basting spray. I think where the thread broke it was on too thick.

Then I cut them into 10.5" blocks and sewed the pinks to the greens. |
I have come back to look at your 'Cheerful Garden' When I looked at this quilt the first time for some reason the line from a nursery line came into my mind. "Cheerfull Garden...all in rows". Miss Mary might be contrary but that little quilt is anything but! Sweet job. Cheers!

Very cute! I like the colors together, it reminds me of flowers and veggie gardens

I bet it will be spoken for quickly, maybe add the person who gets it, to the name.
|
It looks adorable!
