I just had to tell someone about what happened today. I needed to get started on a baby quilt for my niece (the shower is next weekend). I just couldn't decide on the fabric to use. I have plenty of gingham but it's not what I wanted. Now the strange part. I was standing looking at the mess I had made going thru my stach - I said out loud "what am I going to use"
When some FQ bundles fell off the shelf. So I said thanks and started to work. This is what I made. I still need to put a border on it, but what do you think?

I think it is "divine"

I think you bought a bundle of talking fabric :)
It's beautiful!!!!!!!!!!

Perfect! Just a green binding I think.

funny story with a cute quilt to go with!

Isn't God good.

I think the fabric knew it would be perfect and it is. :thumbup:

And people don't believe it when we say fabric "speaks" to us!

Fabulous! Does the pattern have a name?

This is so cute.... and amazing, The same thing happened to me because I have such a mess in my sewing room... I fell into a GREAT quilt that day with Fat quarters.

What a cute story and a really pretty quilt!

I uh...think you had a little help from above! Cute and cuddly quilt! :thumbup: I wish I were that good. I have to do a baby shower for my grandson tomorrow, expecting my first Great Grand daughter! Due in January...8 grandkids and 1 great...no wonder I can't get anything done! But, the house will be here, I can clean tomorrow but the kids won't wait, they grow way to fast..

I think it is "Heaven Sent".

I'd have to agree with that.

Pretty quilt.

My DGD and I found this on youtube last weekend. It called tube quilting. I thought it looked quick and easy.

Very cute! What a weird thing to happen! Looks like it worked out well though :)

I think they knew what they were 'dropping' about!

Great story! The quilt is beautiful!

I think those fat quarters knew just what you needed so the presented themselves to you! It turned out very pretty!

I have heard of fabric talking to you but this is the first I heard of it jumping off the shelf. It was right, a beautiful quilt is the result!

Really nice baby quilt! I love your story too! The quilting God certainly heard you and gave you great direction.

Beautiful! Love it!

Absolutely adorable!!

Could I borrow your ghost or quilting angel? The quilt is great.

Please share it with the recipient of your quilt.
