Today I'm sharing a few photos of the quilt I made recently for my nephew and his wife. They're expecting a baby boy after the first of the year - my first official great-nephew (I'm already a great-aunt on Doug's side of the family) and also my mom's first great-grandchild. Oh my gosh, she would be beyond excited for the birth of this little one!!! ♥

| I used a strip of washi tape as a marker so I could sew a straight line from corner to corner. |
I can't wait to hold that little man next year, hopefully with this blanket wrapped snuggly around him.

It's beautiful!!
What is that red polka dot line you have on the quilt in the the shot where you are machine quilting? I've never seen that!
such exciting news and a beautiful quilt - love those animal friends. I was going to ask about the dotty line too
:o) I added a caption to that photo in case anyone else is wondering. I used washi tape to mark a line from corner to corner so I could sew a straight line.
Grey walls and that gorgeous quilt? That's going to be one seriously stylish baby!
Those colours are so lovely. They will love it. The washi tape line is genius! I saw it and immediately knew what you were doing. My lines always go wonky when I am quilting! Thanks for the tip.
Such gorgeous colours,Deb.....and what a brilliant idea to use washi tape like that.
Love your seasonal blog header.
Wonderful news, and a terrific quilt! Your sewing skills shine again!
It's lovely, colors and all! I cannot wait to try quilting, I have all the goods but am a bit nervous about starting.
Love the colours! Xx
So sweet and adorable, Deb ~ and it looks SO SOFT!!!
The quilt is beautiful Deb, I'm sure they will all love it :)
It's gorgeous Deb. Love your idea of using the washi tape as a guide.
