I am so pleased with the way this quilt turned out. This is such gorgeous fabric and this simple design showcases that perfectly.
The two small inner borders and the single checkerboard border add just enough interest without getting lost. What surprised me is how green it looks. I'm so glad I decided to only add pink and turquoise.
The echo quilting on the petal blocks gives this very modern quilt that traditional look that I wanted.
I found a fun stripe with red, pink and pale yellow - a perfect contrast to the large floral design.
The "K" is not for Karen but for my new precious granddaughter, Karis.
And of the course the kitty. This time it did double duty as it's also the label. I had to add a background piece since it blended into the backing. So now I wait, trying to focus on another project. It's very hard :).
Until next time,
Karen

It is absolutely beautiful and I just love the added touch of a little kitty in all your quilts. I think I told you I have a friend who does the same thing.
Beautiful! Love the kitty.
Your quilt looks beautiful! The newborn will love it!!
It's such a beautiful quilt, Karen! It's too bad that sweet Karis won't really appreciate her Nana's quilts until she's older. Still, it will assuredly be loved. Blessings to all of you as you await the special arrival. Then, let's see a picture of the wee babe on that quilt!
Exciting times ahead. Darling quilt and I love how you personalized it with her initial.
A really beautiful quilt...best wishes!!
What a beautiful quilt! I'm sure every stitch holds a lot of love ... it's what I tell my grandkids ... every stitch is a prayer and a bundle of love. ;-) I'm sure you can't wait to see your granddaughter face to face. {{hug}}
Gorgeous, Karen!! I am so excited for you....you are going to just LOVE being a grandma!!
It's gorgeous, she will love it as she gets older.
It's gorgeous and such a good way to show the bigger print. I love the borders and binding too. I hope you don't have to wait too long.
