Grace is a Single Girl

Grace is the proud owner of her own "Single Girl" quilt. My sister Amelia made this absolutely gorgeous quilt for her out of Prints Charming fabrics and I am officially in LOVE!



It is super soft, with a cotton voile dotty print on the back.


I think it will fit Grace for a while!


I was absolutely blown away by all the effort that would have gone into this quilt. I love this pattern, but don't think I'd have the patience for it. The quilting was even a perfect 1 1/2 inch apart.


And, not only did Amelia make me a quilt, she also made me a baby change mat to match my bag...


 
as well as a couple of cute little bibs - the one on the left is for everyday, and the one on the right is for Sundays - how adorable!!


Grace is one lucky little girl to have such an amazingly talented and generous Aunty! Thanks Meelie (you can see some more pics and info on her blog HERE)!

Better run, Grace has just woken up...

    Well, don't you have the sweetest sister! I love it that she made Grace (and you) such wonderful handmade gifts. The quilt is fantastic and I love the idea of a Sunday bib! Your bag and changing mat are guaranteed to get ooohs and aaaahs at baby group! So stylish!
