One fluffy baby quilt and a trip out :)

So once the baby quilt was thrown excitedly into the washing machine yesterday it was announced we were going for a walk down to the beach before our Sunday lunch (It wasn't me that announced it!) 


It was that lovely mix of sunny and cold, but not too cold.


The waves were rocking, I love the sound of crashing waves!

And as anyone that has kids knows we came home with a mountain of beach combed shells pebbles and rocks :)

Once we got home I hauled the quilt out of the wash and got it hung out to dry (Katy I'm seriously thinking on a tumble dryer again!) and now it's all dry and squishy soft I thought I'd better share :D


it's finished at approximately 32"x32" 



The backing and quilting


This one is in my shop

I'm now having a play making some Blythe doll bonnets and capes so should have some to show and tell soon!

Hope you all have a great week :)

  5. A win- win. I don't know what I like more, collecting stones, sheller sea-glass or how a quilt looks when it is first washed. And yours is a prize.
