What was your inspiration?
My friend, Naomi, is having her first baby at the age of 40 after IVF treatment, so this is going to be a really special baby (yes, I know, they're ALL special!) and I wanted to make her something unique. Although she has told me the sex of the baby, it's being kept a secret from everyone else, so I made this cot-size (crib-size) quilt in apple green, lemon, lilac and white so as not to give anyone any clues!
What are you most proud of?
I'm pleased with my free-motion quilting on this quilt. I found a You Tube video on which someone demonstrated quilting flowers and loops and, after a bit of practice on a spare piece of quilt sandwich kept for the purpose, I took a deep breath and went ahead, including a few hearts as well.
