My sister and I joined forces to make a baby quilt for our nephew's baby who will be born in February. My sister sewed the quilt top from a kit from Cherished Pieces and did a great job. When I did the pin basting it laid completely flat which doesn't often happen with my quilt tops!
I free motion quilted vertical strings of hearts in the centre panel. The stitch length was an issue since I was quilting too fast (as usual) because it was fun!
I quilted simple straight line Xs through the border squares. The fabric was so adorable and I had warm fuzzy feelings the whole time I worked on this quilt.
This is my first finish of 2023! Woohoo!
Finished size: 40" x 50"
Linking up to Alycia's Finished (or not) Friday
