Along those lines, my last post was of the quilt for my brother's stepson and his wife. It was intended to be a house warming present, but ended up being a Christmas gift from my brother and his wife to their son and daughter-in-law.
The couple's names are Joshua and Mandy. The outer background is yellow daisies. Daisies are Mandy's favorite flour and one of the requested elements for the quilt... along with the Royal Blue color.
This is my first quilt using this pattern and there are some things I did differently with the second quilt from this pattern (more to come later). I am, however, pleased with the mitered corners on the outer border. The border fabric is a stripe and it took some time for me to figure out how I was going to use it in the border. Looks good, doncha think?
BTW, Joshua and Mandy are expecting their first baby. How am I ever going to finish the quilts I have started if people keep having babies?
Beautiful quilt. I can never get enough blue or enough stars. You should list all your current projects in a post so we'll know what we have to look forward to.
