Cathy: Finito!
[Editor’s note: Cathy suggested we just add a link to her last post to point to the finished product, but I think this accomplishment merits a full display right here, don’t you?]
The quilt is finished! Phew!
And Toots is very happy.
Final ironing and pinning stage to close the open, stuffing edge:
Here it is before I threw it in the wash, so I can put it on her bed tonight.
The stitching isn’t perfect, neither is the stuffing, but you know what? I did it. It’s my first quilt. I’m proud of it.
And Toots’s toes will not be hanging out the foot of it when she sleeps for a looong time to come.
Nope. They sure won’t!
And you know what else? Look at the look on her face in both shots. I’ll wait. Go ahead.
She knows I love her, big time.

Thank you so much!
I don’t think she could get happier then being rolled up on the floor in something so beautiful.
aw, that’s so sweet, wonkey donkey! thank you!
Congratulations, Cathy. It’s beautiful. Many years ago I made a “maverick” crazy quilt for my oldest. I’d planned to make one for each child, but you know how THAT story goes. You’ve inspired me!
thaks, miranda! i inspired you? wow!
i am already planning a new one, of course with fabrics i found on that custom fabric site you posted on the fb page!
it’ll be a lap one for me to cozy up this winter on the couch.
it looks so pretty and your daughter is just beaming! that is I AM LOVED wrapped all around her…
thank you, robin!
