I finished my baby girl's quilt! Thanks to my mamma, I have a new interest in sewing and quilting. Just baby quilting for the moment, because I do not know how ANYONE has the patience to make a bigger one. I sewed the top and did the applique, then took it to Oregon over Christmas and Mom helped me quilt it. Ok, let's be honest, she did most of the quilting. Here it is:
I am a TOTAL amateur so there are definitely imperfections, but I'm really happy with it. It looks so beautiful and bright in her room on her crib. I cannot wait to snuggle her in it and see her playing and rolling around on it. We don't have a lot of space in her room, but the space that we do have is decorated with these same fabrics and other cute stuff. It's starting to feel like a baby belongs in there :).
That's just an up close look at the applique flowers. Those provided many frustrated calls to my mother, but I got better and better as I went. It will be a while before I applique anything again. Anyway, I just wanted to share! Baby girl moves ALL. DAY. And I mean all day. I think she is running out of room or something, because I feel her at all times. And I love it. I am starting to be sad that pregnancy is ending. Don't get me wrong, I cannot wait to have her in my arms, but pregnancy has been wonderful for me and I will miss that.

Your quilt puts mine to shame, Jenni. That is gorgeous, you did such an awesome job!!!
I'm glad you're loving being pregnant, I love it too...well, I loved the first one. Each one after has proven to be slightly less loveable. It's so lucky that you're feeling so good! I can't believe how close you (we) are!
