It's finished!
All I ask is that you don't look too close, because this is definitely my practice quilt. The stitching is huge (we could call is mega-stippling!) and the stitches are all different sizes, but I will say that the 2nd half of the quilt is better than the first. When it comes to crafting, I find that you have to jump in and start somewhere and work on developing your skills before you complete something that you really feel good about.
My next quilt will be much smaller--a baby quilt--and the stitching is going to be smaller too. I am confident that the outcome will be more to my liking. It has to, because it is a gift!
For now the quilt is resting on the chair waiting for cooler days when it is sure to get lots of use!
While I was sewing, Aubry was teaching her friend to make a pillow. They were so cute together and Aubry was a surprisingly good teacher, even if she was a little bit serious about the whole thing.
Hmmm....I wonder where she gets that?!?
After finishing her pillow, her friend asked if it is possible to make a necklace out of fabric, and I told her that I didn't know, but within 5 minutes she had one made up and she even put a button on it for decoration.
I think Aubry has a crafting-partner in the making!
Lucky girl!
