I did a loopy meander, and found I did a couple of open hearts, wrote the word "love" and even found a few spots that I had cursive "L's" in the quilting.
For the border I did wavy lines. When I first learned free motion quilting I would try for straight lines and get wavy lines. Now when I try for wavy I get more straight lines. I learned this border design through a you tube tutorial by Angela Walters @www.quiltingismytherapy.com
I hope this quilt is loved by mom and dad and especially little baby. Quilts are a great comfort. I make all of my quilts with love and I want them to be used and loved.
Just a recap:
No pattern was used. Just 4.5" squares sewn together. I did do a border at 5" all around.
Thread for piecing was from www.connectingthreads.com and is the essential collection.
Thread for quilting is glide by Filtec at www.habanddash.com
What a sweet quilt for a little baby. I'm sure it will be treasured. I love the quilting, especially the little hidden bits, like the word love. Thanks for linking to TGIFF this week :)
