Sienna Loves Her Quilt

Quilt for Sienna
65 x 76"
I finished this quilt for Sienna just in the nick of time. Her birthday is this weekend, and I stayed up late last night getting the binding and label on it. I must say I am quite pleased with the results. All those bright colours have grown on me!

I'd also have to say that this is the best quilt, technically speaking, that I have made so far. I took a lot of time to make sure all the blocks and borders were squared up, and the pieced back is square to the front. Yes, quite pleased.

And all that worry about it not being loved? All for nothing. Sienna's mom Anna had tears in her eyes when she saw it, so I'm thinking I nailed it.

  1. That quilt is gorgeous! And nothing like tears in the eyes to show the appreciation is genuine. I really love the angel with her name in the middle.
