Working Backwards

So, I figure I will work backwards through my backlogged quilts that need to be blogged.

I finished this one up (with the help of my lovely mom, since I was super prego and had lots going on!) back in November for all my boutiques.

Well, I still have it, but I hadn’t gotten any good pictures of it until this week.

I made this (once again, with help. Mom pieced the top and basted for me!) with a Verna honey bun that I was hoarding. My favorite LQS happened to have what they had left of Verna in their clearance section right when I figured out what to do with the honey bun. Fortuitous, as I didn’t have any yardage of the pinks, oranges, or yellows that I wanted for the backing, border, and binding.

I practiced some more free motion quilting and covered this one with big flowers.

I used the fun flower dots for binding, once again machine stitched, love!

I love this cute yellow flower print, I think it works great for the back.

This baby quilt finished up at 37” x 46”, and is now listed in my shop here.

I have had a request to write up a pattern for this one. What do you think? Anyone else want a pattern for this quilt, possibly with different size options? I like feedback :)

I just said "backlogged to-be-blogged blankets" a bunch of times in my head and it hurt.
