Charlie's friend Lisa is pregnant and will have her baby in June. I was volunteered by Charlie (and yes, I probably would have done it anyway) to make her a baby quilt.
It's been absolute torture to have the quilt done, but not be able to share pictures of it because she wanted it to be a surprise. We mailed the quilt but her mom hid it till the baby shower which was yesterday.
I am not a patient person and would rather always give the gifts as soon as I can.
This is also my real first attempt at free motion quilting. I still need the right kind of foot for it though.
I unintentionally made a heart and when I found it, I decided to just go with it and outlined it with a pink running stitch. Then I also added the babies name and the year. If she wants to she can always add the day and month when she knows for sure. :)
This is one of the cutest hot air balloon quilts I've seen! It comes up on pinterest regularly ;) Thanks for sharing it!
