Well, I finally got the rainbow baby quilt done. I really like how it turned out despite all the aggravation. The quilting made it look much better.

I am disappointed at how most all of the pinwheels did not come together. I used the Missouri Star version of making them since I only had 5" squares to work with. The biases are just so slippery. And... I'd like to say that I learned a lesson about using good quality fabric instead of cheaper stuff, but I already knew that and disregarded the little voice in my head. I used a broadcloth, polyester/cotton for the background fabric and it gave me fits. I wanted the light blue color and no one had it in 100% cotton. But I suspect the baby won't notice the points (or lack of them!) and will appreciate the perfect blue background! ha!

In late May I will find out what version of a grandchild we will be having in October! And then it will be time to make another baby quilt! Yay!

Benno, "14 weeks early" That struck my heart. I will pray for Josiah and Abigail. Please let us from time to time how they are doing Judith

benno OFFLINE Posts: 121 Thank you received: 6	What beautiful quilts girls! Here are 2 I finished recently for my niece. She was expecting twins in July but they arrived VERY early at Easter (14 weeks early!). They are 3 weeks old now and hanging in there, and my niece is looking forward to Josiah and Abigail using their quilts when they come home
