BLOGGER QUILT FESTIVAL - SPRING 2009

1st online Quilt Festival that I am joining into. Amy is the gal that has come up with this idea.
It was not hard for me to pick out my favorite quilt that I have made.
I made two of baby quilts, one for my Great Nephew and one for my Great Niece. They were born just a few months apart. I made them both alike except one is pink and one was blue.

I embroidered 9 blocks with Baby Animals with a pastel variegated thread, and quilted only around each block. I used a cute flannel print for the backing and attached a label. If you click on each photo you can see a close up and see more of the detail.
