    Default First - maybe only - Puff Quilt

    Well...it is finally finished !! My DDIL sent me a photo of a puff quilt and asked if i thought maybe i could make one for my 4 month old grand-daughter. Of course - Mimi could NOT refuse such a request. Bad enough they are 1300 miles away from me and i have to live on photos.
    She asked for bright colors and the ruffled edge. I have to say - this is just about the hardest "quilt" i've ever made !!!! And who remembers how to do ruffles any more !!?? But it's done and i think she will be pleased. Can't wait to see a photo of my sweet DGD lying on it ! PS...colors are not coming out very "true". Thanks for looking.[ATTACH=CONFIG]490032[/ATTACH]
