This is for a friends shower on Sunday - I wanted to show off all the blocks so there is lots of pictures. I purchased the blocks at a garage sale and love them : ) The backing is bright yellow fleece.

Okay lets try this again since it wont let me upload directly I will go back to the old way...

I still need to put a label on it and iron but I am pleased with how it turned out.

Marie, your quilt is charming. What an incredible find. Are the blocks machine embroidered? You did a great job of tying them all together with the soft pink sashing. Very sweet. Lois

The blocks are so sweet. I especially like the elephant. That's one lucky baby.

Lois,

Yes they are machine embroidered and I only paid $10 for these and 2 other sets : )

Gotta love a good yard sale! LOL

Adorable! You got a wonderful find at the garage sale--$10 wouldn't even cover the cost of the embroidery thread. All the squares are just precious for a baby quilt!

That is a great garage sale find!! It would take quite a while to stitch out all of those. And you made such an adorable quilt.

I would truly have a fit if I found those at a garage sale lol!!!!

They are very well embroidered and really cute designs. The gorgeous designs alone would cost much more than you paid for everything.

Beautiful quilt, I'm sure they will be very pleased.

You found those blocks at a yard sale? Wow! I believe that everything happens for a reason, and those blocks were simply waiting for you to come along! That's a great quilt, and you should be proud of it!
