This quilt top is credited to my friend, Brenda. Alice says i cannot call it blame....it has to be credit. haha
Brenda and I were digging through a tub of scrap fabrics at our quilt class last week. and Brenda said something to the effect.....there are some really nice soft florals in that box that would make a nice baby quilt.
Well, i ignored her at the moment. then, came home and the thought hit me....and wouldn't let go.
So.....
I dug through the stash and pulled out the soft florals and cut 8" squares....2 of each.
And did an applique alphabet with the embroidery machine. the outline of the letter i used a color of thread that matched the floral in the square. used the same fabric for the letters as the border.
It is 46 x 53"
So, Brenda, here is your inspiration....and credit. haha
Another one for the to-be-quilted cabinet. i think i am real close to replacing all the tops i have quilted out of that cabinet in the last month. i better stop piecing and get to quilting.
