. . . hayden's quilt . . .

. . . i love 
. . . the time it takes 
to select fabric . . .
. . . cut . . . 
. . . stitch . . .
. . . press . . .
. . . trim . . . 
. . . arrange . . .
. . . ahhhhhh . . .
. . . i love that whole process . . .


. . . designing and printing a label . . .


. . . using up scraps on the back . . .


. . . pinwheels made 
from leftover 
half square triangles . . .


. . . but the very best part 
is picking it up 
from the quilter . . . 


. . . she's the one 
who makes it truly beautiful . . .

SOOOOOO cute. maybe my favorite quilt of yours yet! does the chevron go together pretty quick? i like making quilts with big pieces like this one, rather that lots of itty bitty guys. (:
