Baby Girl Quilt

Here is our newest baby girl quilt from our church quilt ministry.

This was (like all of them) a labor of love.  Momma is one of our Pastor's daughters and such a lovely lady.  The new addition is absolutely adorable and I'm looking forward to being able to hold her in a few months - when she's big enough that I'm not freaked out by her itty-bitty-ness. :-)

Here are a few more pictures:  My camera is having issues with the flash, so they aren't quite as clear as I'd like.

All cotton fabrics. Center medallion panel (pink, white & brown prints), bordered with a small scale brown & white floral, pieced border in a variety of pink prints, second brown floral border, (all set on point) with hot pink striped fabric setting triangles.  Machine quilted in two different all-over designs.  Double fold binding in backing fabric that is hand-finished.  Batting is cotton "warm & natural" and the entire quilt is easy care machine wash/dry.  Very important for a busy mom and essential in a quilt that is meant to be used well.
The back is a fun Debbie Mumm plaid fabric.

Another Quilt Ministry Quilt

This is another one from our Ladies Quilt Ministry at our church - Riverside Christian.  Aren't the cats just adorable?  Of course if you are not a cat person... well... tough! :-)

Quilt Ministry Project

Our church has a quilt ministry. We get together a few times each month to sew quilts for all new babies in our congregation. We just had the pleasure of finishing (and giving) a quilt that is one of my favorites so far.

Isn't it pretty?  The blues and yellow are so cheerful and fun!  It is a bit tough to see, but the woman who did our lovely machine quilting added boats & waves quilted into the plain white blocks.  This particular quilt was a gift for our Pastor's soon-to-be born newest grandson.
