Leah's Quilt

I got a new niece at the end of February.  She keeps her momma awake at all hours, but she lives in Washington state so it doesn't bother me I love her anyway.  When Sarah found out that she was going to have a girl she asked me to make a quilt for her.  Needless to say I freaked out felt honored.  I made Sarah pick out a patterned fabric and then went on the hunt for some coordinating colors.
I used Freckled Whimsy's tutorial for Pocket Full of Pinwheels and created my own back.
I put the L on with machine applique and then embroidered her name.

I don't have any great pictures because I was in a serious rush.  But Sarah did send me this one:
One of Leah's other aunts made her custom artwork to go on her walls that would match the colors in the quilt.  That girl is gonna be so spoiled.
