Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Children


Materials

First quilt using Babylock Sashiko machine and free motion quilting.

What was your inspiration?

You may recognize this pattern as one that is usually used in a beginning quilting class. My granddaughter picked out the material. I took the class a long, long time ago. I finished the top but planned to send it to a long arm quilter. After taking several Craftsy classes I had the confidence to finish it. She doesn't know I finished it so I can't wait to give it to her!

What are you most proud of?

Actually finishing the quilting on a project this large. I had fun trying to use my new Babylock Sashiko machine. It was a challenge but fun. I have a LOT, LOT, LOT to learn. I have a LOT, LOT, LOT of mistakes on this quilt but I am just proud to finish it and learn from it.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Just have fun!!!

I am trying to answer each of you but it doesn't seem to want to work. Anyway, THANK YOU TO EACH OF YOU! It is very exciting to have finished my second quilt. My granddaughter did a great job picking out the colors. Thanks again!

Love the black, white and RED! I have a lap quilt my Mom made me from left over purse fabrics. It has the black with the red chili peppers on the entire back.

Thank you! I don't have the pattern since I made this quilt top in a beginning quilt class about two years ago. (It took me that long to have the confidence to quilt it! lol). I am sorry I don't have it.
