Baby Quilts - Today's Progress Report

Wow! I have had another great sewing day. There just weren't enough hours in the day today, but I have finished what I set out to do.
I have basted these quilts:
I have been busy quilting on my machine:
I also made the binding. After much indecision I settled with an Amy Butler fabric, Full Moon Polka dot in Lime:



And picked a favorite fabric patch:



I will post pictures of the finished quilts tomorrow, when I can take some decent photos of them in the daylight.

Hope you too have had a great day.

    The more I see of it, the more I love the straight-line quilting. I've only done free motion so far. This looks so nice and clean, I'm eager to give it a try.

    I wish there were more babies in my family so I could make these beauties! So pretty! I like the doggy patch too.
