completely off topic

My agent had a baby, a little girl. Mom and daughter and dad, too: all doing very well.

I generally don't have the patience for traditional quilting, but I made an effort in this case. You can see the completed quilt; a detail (before actual quilting) and/or a close up (also before the quilting) here.

Or not.

Beautiful! And so original.

Sara that's beautiful - and so nice for her to have something that's the result of lots of your time and trouble, and that is completely unique.

so sweet, I want to make something like that for my latest family member but I dont have a clue how to do that sort of thing! I feel a night class coming on

Very nice! I love the baby in the peapod. Also the bright colors, not too babyish. I made a bright and dark quilt for a friend's first baby some years ago, and was very touched to hear that she has taken it along to college with her. *g*

That is beautiful! I love the details, especially the baby in the peapod. You may claim to have no patience, but it is evident that you certainly have a lot of skill.

Lovely work. Nothing like the gift of a home-made quilt to make you feel appreciated and loved. It has a nostalgic 70s feel to it.

What a beautiful gift! That peapod/baby design element is heart-warming.

I love the colours you have used Sara. I'm sure your agent and her family will love it too.
