WIP

Lately I've been to busy with my new relief society calling to do anything!  I need to take some time off from running here and there, having dinners, planning activites and do some quilting, my relaxation/fun time.

I saw a quilt online that I loved and decided I had to try!  (I'll link it to the original).  I have done flying geese a little, meaning one of my 4 templates was actually unwrapped from its packaging.  So, it did have me a little nervous.  It turns out that this quilt was so easy to put together, and now I just need to finish the  quilting and binding.   I used the Moda, scruptious line, fabric I've been dying to use since September, when I first saw it.

I absolutely love flying geese and they really are so easy.  They do make one of my favorite quilts.

 My good friend is having a baby any day.  It's been 12 years since she had her last girl, so she needed a girly blanket. 



I'm going to link this to WIP Wednesday from www.freshlypieced.com and Sew Fresh Quilts

Oh, that sweet baby quilt is living up to it's fabric line... It is absolutely scrumptious! Your flying geese are perfect. Isn't it funny what fear can do to us? Drive us nuts over nothing! What a charming gift for your friend to celebrate her new baby!

I agree completely! I was afraid to try flying geese the first time, but they are easy peasy and I enjoyed making them :) Your quilt is looking lovely!

Such a pretty little girly quilt! I love the colours and all the floral prints. I am just finishing a cot quilt today and have found that I might get hooked on baby quilts because they are so quick!
