My sister will be a new grandma (twice within 6 weeks) and asked me to make up a few things for the new babies.
Here is a travel quilt for a little boy whose granpa is Farmer Mike. I added the words to "Old Macdonald"
to suit what he had on his farm. This is my first baby quilt and I had a lot of fun doing it. I am working on a second one already,
thanks for looking and hugs to all
Michelle

I love it. It will mean so very much to the child as they grow. You are a pro already because you put so much thought into.

Thank You so much
It took alot of decision making on fabrics (I had to many to choose from LOL), and this was only a small travel quilt so I did not want o overload it. The one I am working on now is larger and had alot more embroidery. Loved the process but realize now that quiliting is a whole other ball game.

Love what you have done here . The tan fabric makes me think of growing rows the words are great and the colors. You put together things so well. I am looking forward to your next project.

Thank you Mary,
I didn't realize how much planning went into quilting and although this one is very simple, I think it foots the bill. The one I am working on now already has about 400,000 embroidery stitches in it and tell a much bigger story of farm life. Thank you again for your kind comments.
