    Default Dr Seuss Quilt

    My first quilt share here I made this for my daughter's therapist's new baby. My daughter (10y) picked the theme and helped with most of the fabrics. Turning Twenty is the pattern and it was quilted on my new-to-me-Bernina-QE440 (which I LOVE). Yup, that's my first feather We backed it in Red heart-embossed minky and I used machine faux-piped binding.

    Thanks for looking!!

    Sweet quilt! And I bet your daughter has enjoyed the whole process! Did she do any of the sewing or cutting?

    What a cheerful quilt! I'm sure your daughter's therapist will love it. It's great that your daughter picked the theme and helped with the fabrics. I bet she's just as proud as you. Thanks for sharing.

    I was right! Your quilt is super and your FMQ looks great. I see some meandering, zig zags, swirls and your feather, congratulations!

    Your DD has a great eye for fabrics, maybe she will follow in Moms footsteps. Thanks for sharing.
