| Peek a Boo M! |
The pattern is one I have used in baby quilts before and is an I-Spy quilt pattern that I bought from the lovely Amy some time ago. This time I improvised a bit and instead of making the squares in the centre 3.5" I made them 2.5". I've backed the quilt in some Momo I had sat in my stash.
This quilt seems to have taken me an age to complete and I must be honest but I do feel relieved that it is now on it's way to it's new owner! I totally lost my sewing mojo in early pregnancy and the quilt just sat half pieced for months before guilt took over and forced me to get off my ass and get this beauty finished!!

The measures approx 36" x 36" and is quilted with wonky straight lines - it's my speciality you know!!
I've also decided that this quilt will be my entry into this years Bloggers Quilt Festival, hosted as ever by the lovely Amy.
Please click on the image to take you to the link up party for the festival!
If you've never entered you should as it's a great way to get oodles of inspiration, see new blogs and generate traffic to your blog too!! A win win all round I think!!

Your quilt is just precious.
And what a little doll to hold
it up for you! :o)
Absolutely gorgeous! Well done. Congrats on being pregnant too. I hadn't realised!! x
It looks great, well worth all the time, even if it was a struggle (I hate loosing my mojo on a project, it makes you feel so very guilty seeing it hanging around the sewing space begging to be completed). Great matching bunting as well. Bethx
This is fab Justine - I love it too and those fabrics are just a perfect choice for it.
This quilt is super cute Justine, what a perfect gift with the bunting too!
Very nice, some child will be carrying this around as thier "blankie", how much love it is going to get.
That's adorable Justine - I love those DS fabrics, love the quilt too. I'm a wonky straight line specialist too - all the best quilters are..
Lovely quit Justine, looks like you got that sewing mojo back!
Great quilt, I love the hand embroidered label!
Your wonky straight lines look really good. I tried doing that on my 2nd quilt and, uh, well they are REALLY WONKY.
I LOVE this quilt. It is really pretty and my favorite kind of quilt. Squares...straight line quilting...perfect!

Hi Justine thanks for your comment.
I love your quilt, in fact I've never made a square quilt, maybe this might be my next project.

It is a gorgeous quilt Justine. Well done. I like wonky quilting lines too! I would have loved to have got hold of some of that fabric but couldn't really work out a sensible way to get some - boo hoo! Juliex
