guess what i've been doing today...

i had in my drawer a lovely set of 'moda' charm squares that i received from 'Bethstreet' last year, which became the border, and i used a soft white fleece throw which i got from Ikea for £3.
the other 2 blocks will be made into matching cushions.
i have quilted the edges, and will 'tie' the inner 4 blocks and that's it done!!
i wrote your forum names, state & country next to your hearts.
i'm really pleased with it! it's a wonderful baby quilt to Phoebe, with love from my forum friends!!
thank you everyone!!! love jacquie xxxxx

Jacquie - My heart is pounding so hard and I have tears and I am speechless. What love you have shared with us by signing all our names to the blocks and giving it to Phoebe. If this isn't a "Hallmark moment" precious gift of love I don't know what is. You truly are sew sew sew sew sew special.
Now magnify those words by infinity and there you have it!!!

I put the blocks into EQ6 and decided to do a scrappy border like you did but mine is wider. I so like yours. I only have 1 package of 4" blocks and then some FQ's in red, whites and picks.

Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I can't wait to do mine now.

Oh Jacquie, it is gorgeous! How precious for your Phoebe. I am such slug...I haven't done anything with my beautiful blocks yet. I am going to have to give it some thought and see what I come up with. Thank you sew much for including us in your quilt to Phoebe. I think that was awesome to put our names, etc.... on the blocks. I might have to "borrow" that idea!

Thanks for sharing the pix.

Look! Look! It's MY block - Phoebe doesn't realize just how special she is to have my block in her quilt (LOL). Jacque it is absolutely lovely and I know Phoebe will just love it and drag it around and keep it with her always.
