Quilting

I don't just make jewellery and knit and spin (and read and play xbox and sleep...) I love to quilt too. 
I have started a self inflicted tradition; I make a little quilt for the babies in my closest family. This one is for Lily, who is my cousins daughter. It was supposed to be finished ages ago, but finally I sat down and did all the little patches. 
The pattern is a "drunkards path" probably because there is not so many straight lines. ;) I used our grandmother Ingas old fabrics, she passed away a few years ago and is very much missed, I think she would like the fabrics to be reused in this way for her grand-grand daughter. Inga loved green (so do I) and I have lots of green fabrics from her, and one yellow, I thought that would suit little Lily nicely, but I aded some green accents too. The little blanket is quilted on a sewing machine around the  circles and three quarter circles.

Lily looks like she likes it. :) Little cutie!
