Baby Niece Love

This week I started a tummy-time quilt for my soon-to-arrive niece.  We're pretty excited around here - it's our very first Thompson cousin!  I put together her quilt top- the design is Pure Love by Jera Brandvig from Moda Bakeshop.  I altered the measurements to make it a little smaller than the original, but I love this "recipe." 

 (The baby's bedroom is yellow- thus the background- it's hard to tell in the picture but it's a white and yellow stripe).

 

And if that's not exciting enough, I'm completely in love with the fabric for the back of the quilt...... I know I said I wasn't going to buy anymore fabric, but when I saw this it called out to me in the store to buy it (I'm pretty sure it said my niece really wanted this to be the back of her quilt).

Besides that, this week I layered and pinned together my ladybug quilt and completed the SBS block #6 - The Bowtie.  I'm loving this block.  I think I see a full quilt with this block in the near future.

This Week's Stats: New projects - 1
Completed projects - 0
Currently in progress - 5
Goal- I wanted to complete the Pure Love quilt this week, but my husband has reminded me that it might be too lofty of a goal considering all that is going on this week.  We'll see.  Never say never (at least until the end of the week).
