I am so happy with how this quilt turned out. It was so easy to cut and piece and the small size made it quick to stipple, but the results are impressive. I think the stacked coin quilt is my new favorite pattern!
Riley finally gave up his sleeping spot, much to his dismay:
And after running out of white thread a couple times and dealing with needle issues (still need to get the hang of free-motion quilting), I have a finished travel quilt!
Front
I used white Kona Cotton for the sashing.
Back
I love the added touch of a pieced back.
I’m not sure if you can see this, but I quilted an Elephant into the blanket. I wanted to try something different and I like how subtle it is.
I also stippled closer together:
Gotta love crinkly goodness!
I think I have been stippling too far apart, because I haven’t gotten this much crinkle before and I LOVE it.
The next time I place this blanket on the grass, there had better be a baby on it!
really nice stuff….. you should sew the kitty into it
OMG…I LOVE the elephant quilting! That was a brilliant idea!!!
WTG!
Well done! I just finished a stacked coin baby quilt too! So fun – and easy to do! LOVE the elephant you worked into the quilting!
Oh my gosh, love the elephant in the quilting!!
Congrats on the new baby boy – he’s adorable 🙂
