Baby Girl Quilt

Remember the Dolls Like Me quilt drive?  Well, everyone who submitted a quilt was entered into a drawing for some prizes.  And I won a prize!  A very generous prize.  It was a fat quarter bundle from Art Gallery Fabric -- Lambkin.  I was very excited because I have a good friend who is having a baby and I thought this would be perfect.  So I made this quilt:

 

 The fabric was very cute, but I wish I would have chosen a different pattern.  The original pattern had a lot more contrast between the different fabrics.  I think this needed it.  Looking at the picture, I'm starting to wonder if it's just that I'm not used to using such soft, pastel colors.  The quilt is really quite pretty.  In a house full of boys, you just don't get soft and pretty very often.  :)

And I'm not sure if the quilting pattern distracts too.  Or maybe the fact that I chose a pink thread.  You can't see it well in the picture, but maybe I should have stuck to white.  Oh well, at least I tried something new.   And just look how cute that fabric is!  Those little lambs are adorable.

 And I actually really like the back of the quilt!  Simple, but I like it.

So I ended up giving my friend this other quilt.  It was good because she said that quilt matched her nursery.  yay!  I'll save this one for someone else.
