    I made the top last weekend but having never quilted before i was reluctant , however this morning i decided just to go for it and did a very simple triangle design using the walking foot , it is far from perfect but im really pleased with it and the main thing is dd loves it fell asleep on the couch waiting for me to finish it so she could take it to bed with her , and thats what it is all about measures 90x90 cm .
    I didnt follow a pattern i just pieced it together with dds specified colours .

    wow, it is very cute indeed. You did a wonderful job on it!!! I don't always use a pattern either. I like the look of random, sometimes.

    Sometimes, you just have to try something and see how it works! Good job.
