Peggy's Coloring Quilt

It is the CUTEST baby quilt! She scanned drawings from when her children were young and printed them to use as the center blocks. Isn't that cute?



Peggy made this darling quilt for her grandbaby due in a month. I loaded it on Saturday and finished it up on Sunday morning. Little did I know that her grandson must have known that his quilt was finished, because he made his appearance a month early and she called Sunday afternoon to tell me he had arrived and asked about his quilt. Well, it was finished and she picked it up.



I outlined the colored images, continuous curves in the blocks, and did a wavy crosshatch in the borders.





The back is a cute flannel, which doesn't really show the quilting very well.
