Ready to Snuggle In

I finally finished Maddie's quilt at about 1:30 this morning!  I hand sewed the edge binding on and my eyes were so sore when I put the last stitch in.  I'm really pleased with it, my first attempt at machine quilting, and I hope she's going to look after it.



She chose the material, something to brighten her room up.




I added the lilac to break it up a bit




I have the top of a lap quilt ready so I might get the machine out and do something a bit more elaborate than just stitching in the ditch.
