Baby Indianna's quilt
March 09, 2011Our lovely friends Karen and Naresh welcomed their beautiful baby Indianna to the world on Saturday. I have been making this quilt in secret and could not wait to give it to Indianna and Karen. It is my first attempt at machine quilting and was oh so much quicker than hand quilting!! I will definitely do some more machine quilting in the future as you get to see the end result so much faster and you run less of a risk of losing interest in your quilt by spending so many hours on the couch with the hoop, needle and thread (although I also enjoyed this...).
Baby Indianna - 4 days old, with big sister Alia
The pattern is from Quilts Baby book - although I swapped the layout from landscape to profile as I think it suits the 'steps' better this way...
Fabrics are assorted from stash, Spotlight and even an ancient piece from Bali that I bought about 10 years ago! I think it's a lovely soft and feminine quilt (oops Naresh, Karen did let the gender secret out!).
