Hedgehogs

Welcome friends,

Today's quilt is a gift for my daughter who works with an animal rescue.  Hedgehogs are one of the animals they work to find forever homes for.

Unfortunately, the colors in my photo are a bit off.  The true colors should be a bit more of a light gray.  

Fabrics for the gray background are mostly from the Wilmington fabric line.  The various teals and blues are from my stash.

I used  Elizabeth Hartman's Fancy Forest Quilt pattern for the five hedgehogs. 

The layout design was my own.  The backing is a soft flannel. All the quilting was done on my domestic machine. 

The size is about 57" X 64"

   on the design wall

Pinned and ready for free motion quilting.  If you look close you will notice I have already stitched in the ditch along all the lengthwise seams.  This really helped stabilize the quilt and I used each column for a different quilting design.

I'm so excited to gift this, I know she will get a kick out of it!

Hope you are having a wonderful day.
