I finished it just in time to deliver it myself to my then very pregnant cousin Sophie in Provence
Bright and cheerful, it will keep her sweet child warm and cuddly.
I bound the quilt with a very plain white fabric with aqua polka dots and kept the quilting very simple
Just in the ditch and some cross lines around the edges
And of course the outline of the butterfly and the caterpillar
Sophie liked it a lot!
That day she also received the translation of Eric Carle's adorable book so she could tell the story to her baby.
Barely 2 weeks later, Sophie, her husband and the whole family welcomed sweet Chloé to the world
Unfortunately after we returned home. I will have to wait until our next trip to hold little Chloé. In the meantime, the quilt I made for her will have to make do.
Everything about this post is adorable especially the baby.

ReplyDeleteSo pretty. I love all the colors. And butterflies are about the favorite for me when it comes to flying insects.
ReplyDeleteBaby is so adorable. Sorry you were not there to hold her.
