I finished a quilt! It is my boys quilt using children at play fabric by Sarah Jane and I am really, really, really pleased with it!
I finished it today.
The backing was a sheet I found and I love it. It is so soft and lovely. Love the design for my little boy too.
Diggers and tractors - just what little boys like!
I did machine quilting on this quilt and then hand quilted around the stars.
I love hand quilting because it is so soft and specially for someone. It shows you care.
The machine quilting is 0.25" from each seam.
The binding is also a sheet, a plain blue one which was worn out in areas. It is really soft. I hate doing the corners! I must find some tutorials on doing that better because there is definitely room for improvement there!

I love this! Are the stars appliqued?
So very sweet. I love Sarah Jane's fabric designs - you turned her darling fabric in to the perfect quilt for your little guy!
Oh, I love Sarah Jane fabrics...especially Children at play. I just finished helping a friend make one using her fabric yesterday.
what a precious quilt! I love the hand quilting around the stars. I think that really sets it apart.

Love the stars, and the backing! Cute quilt.
Thanks all! The stars are raw edge appliqued and then I hand quilted onto them. I machine quilted most of it in lines.
