May Challenge Day Eighteen/Friday Fun One - 4

So we started the quilt yesterday - my 2 year old daughter and I - and we finished it today.

We sat at the machine and she joined on the final 2 strips, then I ironed it for her (sewing and ironing are very different kinds of dangerous). Then when I asked her what fabric she wanted to use on the back she said pink and fluffy. Best answer she could have said! I got out pink polar fleece and we sewed it onto the right side of her patchwork then flipped it like a pillowcase and stitched around the whole edge again to close it up. I didn't bother with wadding because the fleece is soft enough. With the quilting part of it we just used the stitch-in-the-ditch method and the walking foot and worked around the center square and then moved to the next square out. Pretty simple, but she's only 2 and it's really cute!

Hopefully tonight I'll get back to working on my own quilt.
