Baby's Quilt

Last Friday I spent a number of hours with my friend and coworker, Pam, beginning the sewing projects I want to accomplish for Little Miss. I did a lot of cutting, ironing and learning on Friday, with just a little bit of sewing. Last night, I went back over to Pam's and we put together the quilt. I'm proud to say I did a great deal of the sewing. Pam helped with the corners and did the first side to show me what I was doing. She was also kind enough to sew together all the bias tape so we could start right in on the quilt when I got there.



I really think it turned out fantastically. I love the way it looks. The pink that we chose for the edge really pops with the black and white and it's just perfect. I love it with the mobile, too.



We initially were going to make an actual, albeit easy, quilt, with a patterned top fabric and solid colored bottom fabric. Then, while we were at JoAnn's we found this already thinly quilted black and white fabric that I immediately loved. It's reversible and both sides are quite cute. I prefer the black side. Mom preferred the white when she was here and saw it. Either way, it's going to be great.
