I can't believe a whole month has gone by and I have not blogged anything. I have somehow lost my sewing mojo and then found it again in time to finish that little baby quilt. I can honestly say that I fall in love with each project. This little baby quilt (gotta start coming up with names for my projects) has really been fun. There were a few bumps along the way but all ended up well. The next time I mark a project for quilting, I'll make sure to test the product on scrap fabric first (duh). I used a yellow chalk liner and had really hard timing getting that darn chalk off. All ended well but I was really scared it would not come out of that white fabric. I even made a bag to store the quilt in and remembered to make a quilt label before I was finished with the entire quilt. Enjoy and thanks for taking a peek into my small world, Happy quilting!

Finishing
Little baby quilts are always so much fun for me. They are a quick and gratifying finish! I have been working on this one for a while now and she is almost done. The hardest part for me is always deciding how I'm going to actually quilt the project and what color thread to use. I spend time planning and deciding fabrics to use so I just don't want to pick just any thread. I must say I can see my improvement in my quilting with each project finished. It's usually lack of confidence in myself that holds be back from doing a particular project. However, I am tackling new challenges within myself and it see a vast improvement. I can only get better. This quilt brought about new challenges with quilting because I wanted something that would make the quilt pop. After debating pebbling, stippling and I cant even remember what else, I decided to go with straight line quilting throughout and stippling in the borders. Here is a little sneak peek. Thanks for visiting and as always I would love to hear from you. Happy quilting!
