Wonderful quilts, many congrats for getting them completed so quickly. Hope you gave yourself a pat on the back (or a glass of something tasty) to celebrate - you deserve it :}
About six weeks for the two, Bilbo, start to finish (and that includes a couple of evenings on re-embroidering the labels), so I'm pretty pleased with that, given what else has to have room in my life too.
I can't tell you how much I love these! I have never been a fan of "cutesy" quilts and things for babies. I generally like regular quilts, just smaller, for babies. These fit the bill perfectly. They are bright and fun but not "cutesy". Perfect!
Hazel, these are gorgeous! And I remember when you had just started them! Congrats for two wonderful accomplishments!
ReplyDeleteReally cute. Two beautiful finishes and I love the way you photographed them. The little ones will enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteI commandeered next door's new garden furniture for the photo shoot!
DeleteThey look wonderful Hazel! You have really taken to quilting. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lynn!
DeleteFantastic pair of quilts. I really like the colours, nice and bright.
ReplyDeleteA bit eye-wateringly bright - unless you are a baby!
Deletelooks great, wonderful work!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mrs P!
DeleteThere will be 2 happy babies soon. Great quilts, great photography.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sue!

Hi Bev, thanks for stopping by! I didn't have enough of the stripey fabric for a border, but I'm really pleased with how it looks as binding.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Reenie. I wasn't sure on what size to make these when I started, but like all quilting decisions you seem to know when it's 'right' somehow.
