And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good.

First off, thanks for all the comments! I feel so l-o-v-e-d!

Second, a little FYI, we’re officially naming Baby Girl, “Holly.” I highly doubt another name will come along that I love even half as much as I love the name Holly so consider it already on the birth certificate.

And third, here’s a peeksy of Holly’s baby quilt made by yours truly. The fabric arrived in the mail on Wednesday and I got cracking! I have loved sewing this sweet little quilt. Everything has turned out a million times better than I thought it would. Conor and I decided to get it professionally quilted. Hopefully I’ll have it bound and washed and crinkly by the time we come to Calgary!

If this post leaves you wanting more quilt eye candy, head on over to Liz’s blog. She just finished the quilt top for the Little Miss Daria and Nathan are adopting. She’ll be doing a quilt giveaway soon which I’ll let you all know about even though I’ve already dibs being the winner.

Update: Holly’s quilt won’t be done being quilted until the beginning of April.

This is one Sweet little Quilt, Katie!  I would never have thought of the pink sashing, and it works beautifully.  The whole thing is charming.  Can’t wait to see it , and YOU!, in person.

PS- if you have any scraps, be sure to bring them along- maybe we can fashion Holly a little matching ‘something’ out of them /images/smileys/icon_smile.gif
