Little folks flannel is dreamy

So, I have finished the quilt top that I started about a week ago. I have to say, this went together much faster than I thought it would! I was able to cut the quilt in two nights, and then sew it all together last night and today.

I should really be studying instead of sewing, but who wouldn't choose fun over work??

Do you think it's too busy?? My husband said - "wow, that one is colourful". I think that means he doesn't like it. I don't really think he needs to like everything I make, and I am glad he doesn't come right out and say he doesn't like it!!

On the other hand, my mother in law is here, and she L.O.V.E.S. it!! She just keeps coming into the room and rubbing it. I agree, it is so soft and just makes you want to cuddle up!!

It is really drab and rainy here today - so the pictures aren't the best - but ... something is better than nothing right??

I just laid it out on the floor first:

702

Then to give you a better idea of the size - I put it on top of my bed (queen):

705

Like I said, the pictures aren't the best - but I will take more pictures when it's done. I have to go and get some batting first, and I don't feel like going out today. Something about the rain, and I should also really go study : (

One last thing before I go - I won another giveaway!!! I have been really really really lucky with giveaways. And I really wanted to win this one, so I was dancing around like a crazy woman when I found out!! I don't have pictures yet .. because it isn't here = but stay tuned. As soon as it arrives I will post pictures (a little hint - FMF).

  5. My hubby did the same thing with one of the quilts I made recently. As long as someone likes it you are good right!! My hubby thought it was too colorful--he doesn't understand quilting completely yet I don't think:)
