Too cute to pass up! This is what the kids did yesterday afternoon while I was sewing like a madwoman!!!!!!
After some thunderstorms, which force me to shut off my machine, and numerous sewing mishaps that made me want to cuss like a sailor in the old Navy, I am finally finished with my grandma's quilt!!!!!!
These are the best shots I can get since Katy is in school and Adam is not tall enough :o(
This is the front
It just screams SPRING to me!
The back
All rolled up and pretty. I used a solid Kona pink binding. I do not usually use a solid but I think it works beautifully with this quilt.
The final touch :o)
Now off to trim the irish pennants and wash!!!!!! I hope she likes it :o)

Good job, Kimmy!
Need you to let me know if you sell 'em. I've been looking for an Amish quilt because they're made by hand but haven't found a design I like yet. Would rather spend money on a friend...
So lovely! How did you mark your lines for the quilting? They are so straight! Love it! I made a quilt for my daughter using the same fabric. :)
Oh my. I really love how you quilted it!
Oh my! That is beautiful! You are incredibly talented!
That's AMAZING, i can't believe all the work you did on that!
WOW! The quilting on this really makes the quilt!!
It's beautiful! I especially like how you did the quilting on it.
Yes please share how you quilted her! What a fun quilt!
She will love it. Very nice job it is beautiful.
ITA, gorgeous quilting! Please share. :)
Thank so much!!!! It is officially in the mail to her!!!!!
I will do a post about the quilting in a week or two, I *have* to finish up a couple more things before starting something else. It is really easy to do just time consuming ( at least for me since I have my sweetie pie Adam asking for something every second and a half).
She will love it!!! It is BEAUTIFUL!
Lovely. Great quilting!
I second the comment on the quilting. Great pattern, great job!
Wonderful quilt!
WOW!!! This is really a testament to some beautiful quilting. It looks so wonderful! I am always in a hurry to do the quilting portion, since I don't really like doing it, and I would rather take the easiest way out, but after seeing the quilt top before, it takes your quilt to a whole new level. I am sure she will love it, you did such a great job! :-) I am looking forward to seeing your 'tutorial' on how you did it, heehee :-)
THis is beautiful, Kim! The quilting is fabulous. I have little pile of Dream on that I LOVE and haven't even touched. It needs to be my project this summer. THanks for the inspiration. I'm sure your grandma will love it!!
the quilting looks awesome! I love the diagonals!
She'll surely like it!!!
Your label is very funny:)
I love Dream On, but the quilting really brings this quilt to the next level! So beautiful!
Holy cow Kim! That quilting is just amazing! What a beautiful quilt!
