looks great... haven't seen the ruching before.

I love the ruching! I think it gives the quilt so much texture and dimension. Some little girl is going to go WILD for that quilt!

Nice job! Don't you just love the way new ideas just keep coming here on the QB!

If you used a polyester blend for the ruching, it would always look as if it just came off the sewing machine. 100% cotton will look flat in a short time, as if you had flattened it with an iron.
Cute idea and love the quilt.

hhmm didn't know that. Thanks for the info I will keep that in mind if I do another. At this time I am just trying to use up some of my stash fabric - things are getting out of control here ha ha ha

Your quilt is so adorable. I have never tried the ruching technique. Is it easy to do & would you do it again?

Polyester blend fabric or polyester blend batting? Sorry if that's a dumb question-- I'm new to quilting :o
