Birthday quilt

Not EVERYONE gets a quilt for their birthday at my house...
but tomorrow  a little girlie DOES! ;)

This quilt contains so much LOVE.
I Spy squares from blogland friends....
Strips of scraps from other quilting friends....
And lots of MOMMY love!

I had a hard time choosing a green for the binding...
so I just PICKED them ALL!!!


I also tried out some fancy quilting stitches.
I don't STRESS about the quilting when it's for my little one!


Since my stash is LOW on big pieces I have been
Piecing my quilt backs.
So gratifying to USE up what I HAVE! :)

Here is my quilt's new home.
READY to be cuddled.
Ready to comfort.
Ready to be SPIED!

I'm including this quilt in Amy's quilt festival!
A quilt show we can enjoy
right from our own HOMES!
Thank you for stopping by
and letting me share MINE with you!

    It's just beautiful, Beth! I'm glad you decided to leave the I-Spy blocks unquilted - it really makes the other quilting pop out! Your daughter is going to love it!!!

    I love playing "I Spy" with your quilts. . .I find myself saying, "Ooh, I have that fabric," and "ooh yeah -- I have that one, too!"

    LOVE this....and love the quilting details you did on it. GORGEOUS!!!

    Great quilt! I just love how you quilted it-the flowers in the plain squares are perfect with the cute I Spy fabrics!
