My DIL's baby shower was almost one month ago. Each guest created a unique fish block for a quilt. If you want to read about it, click here to see the blog post.
I am proud to say that in less than one month, it is appliqued, quilted and bound.
IT IS DONE!!
Hooray!
with more than 1 month to go until Baby Lynch's arrival.
I finished it while we were in the mountains for the 4th of July.
I stitched around the fish and all of its body parts using the blanket stitch on my sewing machine.
I love those lips.
After putting the blocks together and adding the borders, I quilted the background to resemble water.
I added a handwritten label to the back
to make one of the most adorable quilts.
Lucky baby! It is a beautiful quilt!

ReplyDeleteI left a comment the other day but it never showed up. I just wanted to tell you how cute I thought it was and that you did a great job of assembling it. The buttonhole stitching around the fish components was a good choice.
ReplyDeletethis is adorable and wonderful that many hands made a great gift.
