My quilt is loved!

I made the Farm Girl Vintage Sampler quilt for my lovely little grand daughter for her 10th birthday!

She's now in the double digits :)

This quilt took two years to make, and was difficult, with all the little pieces that make a 6" block!

I gave it to the perfect person, she really appreciates it :)

Isn't Kennedy the cutest?

A couple of days after she opened her gift, Kennedy and her sisters went to their aunt and uncle's house for a few days.

I asked Kennedy if she took her quilt with her.

She told me she didn't take it to their house because she was afraid it would get dirty.

Perfect answer!!! Lol

Kennedy is perfectly awesome!

She is kind, thoughtful, happy, funny, creative, pretty, and she's made of spice and everything nice.

She's a lot like her mother, like me, my mother and my mother's mother.

How cool to see so many generations wrapped up in one sweet little girl!

Farm Girl Vintage Sampler quilt finished!

It's done!!! Yay!!!

It's taken two years to finish and I love it!

I sent it to my grand daughter Kennedy,

 who will turn 10 on July 19.

A gift of love and time!

I love all 52 - 6 l/2" squares :)

 Here I am busily binding my quilt so I could put it in the mail.

Thanks for following me!

Farm Girl Vintage Sampler is quilted!

I finished machine quilting Kennedy's quilt!

She doesn't know it's her quilt, I'm giving it to her for her 10th birthday, this month :)

I followed the gingham fabric, quilting along the gingham, every 3 stripes, back and forth, creating a crosshatch effect.

You can see on the mint green minky back :)

See the crosshatch design?

I outlined the starts in each corner.  

I followed Lori Kennedy's "simple flower" motif and free motion quilted the design in the center of each block.

I used the wavy stitch on my Bernina, to outline all the blocks.

I did a free motion reverse loop, on the second border, outside of the flowers.

One problem with machine quilting with my sewing machine, is that I can't get the fabric taut like you would be able to on a quilt frame or long arm machine.

I'm going to choose one of these 3 fabrics for the binding.

Can you help me choose which one to use?

Just tell me in the comment box below :)

I like this Sew Cherry yellow!

I think the pink is different, because it contrasts with the red, ever so slightly.

The blue would be pretty too :)

Thanks in advance, for helping me.

I'll post photos of the finished quilt next week!
