THANKS!

thank you for posting this quilt....I will definately make one for my Linus group....very pretty... :-o

What a beautiful baby quilt-- destined to be well-loved.

I love scrappy quilts. My grandmother made one for me; a simple utility scrap quilt with pink sashing. I spent many "naptimes" studying the prints and colors. I'm sure my mom was delighted that it kept me entertained for a few extra minutes!

It was hand quilted like yours. There's nothing like soft hand quilting to snuggle under.

if you search for TECHNIQUE CALLED TURKEY TRACKS you will find a good drawing of the method of execution of this wonderful tacking device. sometimes i have seen it called crow foot tacking.
i use crotchet thread, the kind that comes in a big round ball. it is what grandma used to make doilies. i find that embroidery floss is too much hassle, although i have used it. also pearl cotton but it is more expensive and a little heavier than i prefer. but there are no quilt police. i would suggest experimentation to see what you like. have fun, it is very satisfying.

Very nice quilt nanabirdmo! Great use of scraps! The colors are so soft too.

Beautiful scrap quilt and I love your turkey tracks quilting. Lucky baby!!
