baby quilt finish

One last quilt finish for the year! I just put the final stitches in the binding of this quilt made for a friend's new granddaughter. The request was for a bright, modern baby quilt that could be used past infancy by a little girl.....

 Also, there was a request that it have a tea party reference, since the baby shower was a tea party! I also included some of the linens used at the shower (the pale pinks). Here's a close up of the teapot & cup I included. My pal, Diann, did the beautiful quilting which you can see here as well.

 I used the baby quilt pattern from Rachel Griffith's "Quilts Made With Love" book as a jumping off point, then kind of did my own thing to make the quilt bigger and include all of the requested elements. I rather like the way this turned out!
