A quilt is finished for a very special little man

It's not like I didn't know he was coming, I have had so much notice.  But Noah was born on June 3rd and this quilt was still not finished.  I did have the top completed but had to put it together.

Noah is the first grandchild for my wonderful friend Helen and I don't think I am at all biased in saying that he is just gorgeous.  The other 2 of the Fab 4 mums think the same.


This is such a simple top to make but is so effective.  I have quilted it in the ditch every second row and the down rows is swirls, hearts & stars.



And of course what quilt is complete without a label...



This is number 2 of the 1600 quilt that I have finished and there is another top ready to be sandwiched and quilted.  Hmmm...  wonder if I can really get that finished before it's really needed...  Only time will tell.  I think I have a weekend somewhere between now and when I need to have it finished.
