Quilt Along is finished, done, completed, all ready to snuggle! All in time for a 30th birthday. I am pretty happy with the way it turned out...so here you go, the finished product.
Two things that you need to know, Charlotte was extremely fussy while I was trying to take some decent pictures AND after a day of beautiful 80 degree weather with perfect blue sunny skies it decided to pour down the rain as soon as I decide to take those decent pictures.
So along with some quilt, you are also going to get some runny-nosed, teething, drooling Charlotte.Here is a shot of the front, the back, wave quilting and squiggly binding.
The penny strip really ties the front to the back in my opinion. You can also really see the very simple quilting that I did on this quilt. Jay had the idea of just tracing some bulletin boarder from my classroom with a water dissolvable marker and then following the pattern.
All fabrics of this quilt were chosen by Jay. I have some favorites, but one of my absolute favorites was the backing. Jay picked out this cute little ocean print with little gray, white and yellow whales...they make me happy.
Remember the quilt back is just as important as the quilt front. Especially when cute little baby feet are crawling all over it!
The front all finished!
One little girl with her daddy's quilt and of course Larry the Cucumber, Larry can solve any rough times we may have.
I think she actually had a good time crawling around and I might have gotten a good one or two.
Well, I guess that is a wrap.
