Presenting my current pride and joy:

My quilt. Yes I did a photo shoot with the quilt. Please enjoy.




I started this project back in September thinking I had plenty of time. Well the past few weeks I was almost in a panic about finishing this quilt for my baby girl. Thank you to my dear friend Manda for all the help and her endurance of some panicked texts every now and then.

Things I learned about myself throughout this journey.
  1. I am no perfectionist
  2. I embrace the flaws of my first quilt
  3. I am ready for my baby to come spit up all over this thing

What a cute quilt!! Well done. I started just crocheting the edges of a blanket for Judson 2 1/2 years ago. I still only have 1/8th of the blanket edge done. Maybe I'll pull it out and finish it. You have inspired me. Does your baby need a blue blanket with a crocheted edge?
