This quilt was the first quilt I made to welcome a new baby. My dearest friend Tara's sister was about to have a baby, and I knew I wanted to attempt something special. This quilt may not appear too complicated, but I assure you, it was thoughtful (in the most basic sense of the word). I didn't want to concentrate on a complicated, pieced top. Rather, I wanted to make something modern and comforting. Something sharp but still providing that cuddly quality that makes a quilt a quilt.
The design is clean, straight, and simple, but the quilting is all by hand. Modern and comfy. Sharp and cuddly.
And who can resist an owl print for a baby quilt? (I thought this one was playful without being obnoxiously baby)
These photos are in our old rent house. We just moved, and I am currently working to rethink, reorganize, and remodel a room in our new home solely for sewing. I told my dad I feel like a mechanic who just got a garage!
