    this is a 51" square, baby and mommy quilt top. i constructed it of 10-min-blocks and added a 3" border of the backing fabric. the first picture is the quilt top, the 2nd is a close-up of 1 block, and the last is my DH, the root of all this 'evil'. he is a miracle man who has beaten pancreatic cancer and without him there would have been no DS, noDDIL, and no DGBaby. i stand in awe and gratefulness!

    Both are gorgeous....lucky quilter you! Seriously, your quilt is just charming and I think it's really lovely you are both able to be together and have a little family to share. May you all have many more happy years together.

    The quilt is just beautiful. So happy to hear your DH beat pancreatic cancer! Just wait until you have the new GB...being a GP is wonderful.
