how cute is that?




My quilty friend Glenys is awaiting her 2nd grandchild and has, of course, been busy sewing... making this gorgeous little quilt. She adapted it from a free pattern, 'Paisley Splash' that she found over here at Windham Fabrics. She used this Kaffe fabric, millefiore in pastel blues, for the elephant and has done some echo quilting while having a bit of a play using her new sewing machine. She just needs to add the binding now and then it's all done, all ready for the new little baby due in January!
... H-m-m- I'm guessing it's a boy!

Too cute!

What a lovely quilt. Whimsical. I hope it's a boy or else she will be rustling up one with a pink border in double quick time!

Thank you! I will pass on your comments to Glenys. Her daughter doesn’t really like anything too bright or too fussy, she’s definitely a less- is -more sort of person, so I’m sure this cute quilt will be perfect!
Thanx too for stopping by, Linda

She made great choices with fabric and positioning. It's a beautiful piece!

Yes, an excellent pick for the elephant! Not his usual colours but hey, that’s where a bit of creative license can lead you! L
