peyton's baby quilt

my first solo attempt at a quilt is complete, packaged up and heading off to virginia in the morning! i'm so thrilled to have the finished product all wrapped up in tissue paper and heading to its sweet little baby girl owner. can't wait to see a photo of her lying on it - what fun it is to create a gift for a special recipient, knowing each second you spend putting it together that someday, whenever that day comes when you finally finish it, you'll be able to give that beautiful, handmade gift - but its more than just the gift, its filled with so much love! i was so honored to meet miss peyton as a new new baby, and i'm so looking forward to seeing the lovely lady she'll someday become. enjoy the quilt, little one!


the top fabrics are an assortment of fabrics i selected for my own little lady's bedroom and she'll soon have a coordinating twin bed sized quilt of her own from these very same fabrics!  the batting is bamboo, found on etsy. the backing is hemp/organic cotton found here. the backing is soooo deliciously soft!
