Stair crazy quilt

I have been working on this quilt since I finished the first one in April.  It was a step up in difficulty, with a lot more cutting, piecing, and precision.  I also learned backstich embroidery for this one, which is so simple I wish I had known about it for the first quilt.  Here it is, pieced and ready for a quilt sandwich.

A gift for a new baby on the way

I found a charm pack of quilting squares for a baby quilt, and a few weeks later....

Here it is.

It is made of flannel, machine quilted on the edges in white, and hand quilted in the blocks with pale pink thread.  I used embroidery floss to decorate the edges, add the baby's name, and embellish parts of the design.  I quilted a few animals, so they show up traced in pink quilting on the back.

Hopefully the baby and her parents will get lots of good use out of it!
