Quilt for My Daughter

Quilt for My Daughter - This was my second quilt I ever made. I used chenille and scrap fabric I found. I loved the colors and it gave me that shabby chic look I was going for. Since I was working with scraps that were different sizes, strip piecing for the nine patches was out. So I cut each 2 inch square out separately and pieced each block together square by square. The chenille definitely gave me fits, but I learned to work with it. I appliquéd my daughter's name and tried my hand at satin stitching around it. I am very proud of this quilt.
