ooh...like how that turned out...colors are splendid!

Well it sure is a pretty quilt. I love the bright happy colors that are so nicely set off by the black polka dots. Love the scrappy binding.

Thank you, Ami. 

I still have a small stash of wild border fabrics (like those dots) left from my days of making juvenile quilts for Project Linus (they were great for expanding cute panels into larger quilts). As for the scrappy bindings, well, I have a big jar full of those from various projects. The binding for this quilt just happened to be jelly roll strips that didn't get added to the quilt.

Judy your quilt is so bright and cheerful. I love the jelly roll colors. I also want to thank you for mentioning Donna Jordan. I have been reading through earlier posts on this forum to get caught up and saw that name several times. I was not familiar with her and did a Pinterest search. Oh my goodness, what a treasure. I'm so thankful to be back on this forum and already getting new ideas.

Thanks again, NanaSuz

NanaSuz, I know that many quilters use Pinterest but if you go to

https://jordanfabrics.com/

you will find more ideas that you can use in a couple of lifetimes. She offers classes, kits, precuts and more fabrics for sale than a human can possibly cope with.  LOL

Never in my life have I made a **hand-pieced** baby quilt! It has always seemed to me to be way more work than was warranted. :-)

I say give this adorable quilt to a girl baby who will someday grow up to play mommy and wrap her baby doll up in this charmer of a quilt. Despite what the trends are now there are still little girls who want to play with baby dolls.

Absolutely lovely little quilt, Judy. Your new pillow and this quilt would certainly add pizzazz to your white sofa.  I have a couple of jelly rolls I need to do something with.  Thanks for the idea.
