    Well I am quite sad to see this one go, but I know that it will be well cherished by Lily when she receives it at Christmas from her Grandma Pat, who is so pleased with it!

    I SID all the sashings first, then did some FMQ quilting around the applique and meandered the border. I didn't do much quilting as I want it to remain soft and snuggly for Lily!

    I made two labels for the back, one is a sweet poem I found on the net and the personal label surrounding with Christmas border as it will be a gift!


    So many of you have been following this, I hope you can see the bright colours better in this pictures!

    :thumbup:

    I am quite 'chuffed' with this fmq!

    Lovely poem I found on the net!

    What a great quilt for her 1st Christmas. It is a really cute and happy design. Lily will cherish it always! Thanks for showing it before it goes away.

    It has already gone, her Grandma Pat picked it up a couple of hours ago as she returns to Doha in the Middle East tomorrow!..I did ask her to send me a picture of Lily with her quilt at Christmas so I can share with you! :-D

    Thanks for your lovely comments everyone! :thumbup:

    I don't think there is a little girl anywhere that wouldn't love that quilt.
