But last Summer our little family took a holiday to North Carolina to visit my friend Jenny Lemmons and her family. Jenny and I used to live close to each other here in Lancaster and we were crafty partners in crime. So when we planned our road trip last Summer I actually packed by sewing machine and three half-finished projects into our car for the trip.
Finally I finished my quilt. Then just a few months later my friend had a gorgeous little girl named Grace. And I knew this quilt was meant for her!
It is the perfect quilt for the perfect girl!
I machine quilted it on my Brother sewing machine with the darning (or free motion) foot. It went well and I think with more practice I will get much more even with the quilting in the future.

Oh how I love this! I'd love to know how you quilted this as well as hearing more about jelly rolls. I HATE cutting fabric. And binding, did you hand sew it. I just think that would be annoying but maybe it's not? Inquiring minds want to know :-)
The quilt is gorgeous. Im a newbie to the quilting world and would love any help I can get =)
It's really beautiful. Is the quilting just random, or do you follow a pattern?
Solv - Totally random.
I would love the tutorial if you have thet time. It would be hard to leave that cute little girl.
Thanks,
Lynn

I would LOVE to see a tutorial! I have never quilted before, but this looks like a fairly easy one to start with (especially if I can buy the fabric pre-cut). ;) LOVE your blog!
