2 More finished!


This my attempt at improvisational quilting. Using the Wonky Star pattern I drafted a quilt on EQ5. I a devil of a time piecing it but it turned out well. The quilting was inspired by this blogger. It is machine quilted with the walking foot from 1/4"-3/4". I really like the way it turned out. It is a monster baby quilt measuring 45"x60". The back is white except for the one yellow star.


This baby quilt is for my baby who is now 8 months old! Love the simplicity of the design and especially love the improvisational piece on the back. I might add more quilting later but for now it is finished. I fought and struggled with the loopy quilting on the border. My machine was having a very bad attitude and I finally gave up on it and used my OLD Bernina 717. It worked like a charm. This baby quilt measures in at 43"x49".
