Can I Get A Whoop Whoop? One Less Thing on the Bucket List..


Hi, all!

It's that time again - are you ready to get your whoop whoop on?  I sure am!!  Come see what I did this week!

^&^&^&^&^&^&^

When a friend contacted me about making a baby quilt for her to give as a gift, I sent her some pictures of designs I could make within her budget.  And I'm so happy that she chose one that's been on my bucket list for a while...


I was having a little trouble getting pictures outside....


.... but here's a few more shots of this pretty quilt!



The background is a grey and pink daisy on white, and the border and binding are some of my long-hoarded Kate Spain prints in purple, blue and grey.  I love this quilt!  It was really pretty easy to make, just time-consuming to stitch down the letters.  The quilting is a fairly tight loopy meander, because I wanted to give it lots of texture. 

So that's my whoop for this week!  

^&^&^&^&^&^&^&^

Now it's your turn!  

What are you whooping about this week?

Share - we want to cheer you on!!

Remember, it doesn't have to be a finish -

It could just be a work in progress!

The linky will remain open until Sunday midnight - 

Be there or be square!!

Hugs!

Sarah
