I quilted this baby quilt this week. All of the fabrics are black and white except for the center squares of each block and the inside border which is a very light pink polyester that looks like silk dupioni.
I am a NEW quilter. Actually all that I have done is taken 2 clases, made a few tops, taken 1 long-arm class, practiced on the long arm once…and met DEB! She is amazing. This is a top that I made for a precious little girl whoses grandmother decorated the nursery in B&W with a touch of the pale pink silk…..it is elegant! I wanted to used the log cabin pattern because of its history and story, but I needed to have a comtemporary look. I loved the top when it was finished, but I never realized what DEB could do with her extreme talent………the small, but oh so significant flower detail just made the quilt. I left it all to her…and she made it a master piece. Thank you so much Deb!

I’ve never thought of a baby quilt as elegant but this one surely is! Perfect quilting for it.

Love the flower chain in the pink complements the overall quilt nicely.
