I was so happy to complete this custom order quilt last week! It's the first quilt I've made using the black/white and green colour combo. I'm really happy with how it turned out and I trust that the darling baby girl who it's going to will enjoy it also! I used a nice sage print for the small pinwheels, 3 different black and white patterned prints to create the large pinwheels, and a sweet black and white pin dot pattern for all the background piecing. Sending a shout out to Kim for adding a little stippling to the quilt for a nice, finished look! For the first time ever I did a pieced backing on the quilt to create something fun on the reverse side. Now that this project is crossed off my 'to-do' list, I'll be moving on to preparing for the upcoming open house...details to come soon!
