I am so excited to be posting in
that I can hardly stand it!
My little contribution today is actually a baby blanket, created by using the Caution quilt pattern, a jelly roll of Farm Fresh fabrics, a little extra fabric, and I hand quilted it using perle 8 cotton thread.
I have been saving the Farm Fresh jelly roll for just the right pattern and I am so glad to have used this one!! I just love those chevrons, don't you??
In keeping with the farming theme, I was able to use a yard of cute little barns and tractors for the backing.
I had so much fun making this quilt. Emily's pattern was just perfect for the design and was super easy to understand! I made an adjustment with measurements, to suit the needs of a baby blanket, but was very easy to manage.
Thank you so much Emily for allowing me to play with your pattern and create a very special blanket that will one day snuggle around a sweet baby.
