Baby quilt

One of my co-workers had a new baby girl on March 4th.  I made  a baby quilt for their present.

I used a charm pack from this cute fabric group, added a border, sent it to the machine quilter and then added the binding last night.













Lightened it a bit, pictures taken before 7 a.m., the sun was barely peaking over the horizon.
















Close-up of the fabric and quilting.















My co-worker took the present home over lunch and the 3 year-old big sister proclaimed it "spectacular"!  Her new word for the week, too cute.
