Not my finish!

Today's finish is not mine.  OK while I did finish it but I did not do the bulk of it.  My mother in law intended to make each of her 4 children a hand stitched quilt.   My wife was given this one unfinished all was done but the binding.  As the wife is pregnant she felt it should be completed for her baby.  At this rate, Julia will have like 20 quilts by the time I am done.

The binding was done with a cute polkadotted border my wife picked out and machine sewed on (ya I know hand quilted body and machine sewn edge got to love it) . I am not a hand quilter I don't know if I could ever slow down enough to do that.

As of right now this quilt is not named.  My wife for some reason does not see the need of a name and I am not personally vested in it so its nameless to me.  If a wonderful blogger would please suggest a name I can maybe get it named one day.

  2. hi Richard, nice to meet you.
    regarding your question about the rose star pattern.
    I paper piece because I love it and you can make accurate complicated blocks. I'm sure there are people skilled enough to make this on a machine, just not me. Not sure I could tackle a 'Y'
    seam?

  3. Such a cute quilt! And a finish is a finish ;). A hand-quilted quilt is really a treasure. Thanks for sharing.
