Parisville, Baby

Finally unpacked and back at my machine!
My husband's cousin is expecting her first baby and it's a girl. I had a Parisville fat quarter bundle that I've been dying to cut into. I also wanted to make a Loulouthi Tiles baby quilt and knew this fabric would be perfect!
Quilt Stats:
measurements: 42"x48"
fabric: Parisville
quilted by machine in a random meandering stipple stitch with Connecting Threads "Sunshine".


Then I made this mini quilt for Crystal, who is a WAY BETTER photographer so you'll see better pictures over there!
She is helping me make a king sized quilt for my bed. I finally decided what I wanted to do and it's going to be a huge project and she kindly offered to help make half the blocks and make a couple pillow covers too! So my way to repay her is to make her a mini quilt each month for a year.
I'm so excited that I'm laying in bed at night with ideas swarming in my head endlessly!
