I.am.finally.done. I have so many UFOs. This was one of the quilts that I took to my aunt to long-arm quilt for me. I got all of the red, white and black fat quarters during a shop hop...dear lord...was it THREE summers ago?? This was the first quilt I cut using my Accuquilt GO cutter and then the pieces just sat and sat.
My daughter LOVES to have a quilt on her lap while she watches TV, and she had actually forgotten that I was making this for her. She's very happy with the finished product.
She was willing to pose for a few shots. Gotta love that summer, unbrushed hair look.
The back is some Anna Maria Horner Innocent Crush that I just love. I have a ton of red fabric, and it is amazing how broad the spectrum of red can be. This was the perfect color for the back.
The binding is some of the first fabric I ever bought...years and years ago from Jona Giammalva's Fabritopia. It's Mary Englebreit bowls of cherries.
I found out about two friends having babies in the last week, so needless to say the next two quilts you'll see will be baby quilts. One boy and one girl. Wondering if I should do the same quilt in different colors? Likely I'll just use it as an excuse to buy more fabric. Which I do not need.
