Default Well Loved Christmas Gift

As much as I like the soft backing, it's likely to be the first and last microfibre blanket I ever use for a quilt... Quilting it was a bit of a pain, and I usually don't have all those troubles with thread tension I had with this quilt! But it was well worth the hassles, my goddaughter was absolutely thrilled with her Christmas gift! And yes, there are elephants on it, her favourite animals!

Cut quilt. Did you use Warm Wishes pattern? She looks like she was happy to receive this lovely quilt.

Yes, it's Warm Wishes. Found the pattern online and love it! It's easy and quite fast to piece but still looks somewhat "sophisticated". I'm sure going to do that one again!
