My husband is super-impressed that I've been cleaning up all my crafting stuff around the house and finishing a million projects I started this summer. Must be that nesting instinct! So I finally finished this toddler size quilt for a friend to gift to a friend. It's for a family who loves giraffes, so they should get their fill with this quilt:) I love how poofy the quilt is. I've never quilted with polyester batting before and I have to say it was relatively easy. Except for the bulk, even with a toddler size quilt. All in all, though, I think it turned out nicely. And since I have two super gigantic rolls of this batting courtesy of a friend who is a professional long-arm quilter and decided she hated it and passed it along to me, I'll be using it!
Now I am moving on to a denim rag quilt I made for my mother for Mother's Day (yes...month's ago) that I never got around to trimming up after washing. I will be spending a few hours in front of the tube tonight getting it ready to finally give to her tomorrow when she visits to take Bea to see Secretariat.
