It was probably a little to feminine for baby Brady, even when we try to be more gender neutral :-) But then he got a cool colourful one and you got a gorgeous gentle quilt. I really love the quilting you did on the ends of the scallops. It looks great!<br />Thanks so much for letting me host TBT. I'm glad you had a good time with Brady and his mom. Andree G.

I have had problems with spray basting but I’ve Bee thinking about it and it may be my technique that needs revising, I will try it again I think. Brady’s quilt is lovely too, You really are a most thoughtful Grandma.

I have tried basting spray one time and did not have good results, but after reading your post, I realize my technique wasn't good, and I think I will try it again.

(And don't they just get softer with time and use?) The scallops are perfection, and oh my, you were doing awesome feathers back then already. I see you used Sulky Blendables for quilting. I was just looking at that thread the other day considering if I'd like to try it. I do like the quilt you ended up making for Brady. I need to study it a bit more to see how you pieced it.JanineMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13475847392355523001noreply@blogger.com
