So one pillowcase has become the softest baby quilt

The applique petals came out perfectly. There are still a few yellow chalk marks where I quilted some straight lines but they'll come out with use.

Here is a close up of the quilting stitches I did round the petals. I try to use cotton abrode but I don't have very much. So when in doubt I simply use Gutterman button thread which they seem to sell everywhere and is really cheap. I find it really smooth and just the right thickness. Terrible I know, but it makes for a really cheap quilt! The binding was just a pack of yellow bias binding from John Lewis.

Basically a very quick, cheap, soft quilt! I was thinking I might try and draw up the pattern. I can't quite decide.

It fits perfectly in the moses basket.

And in the Babybay bedside cot.

I know you're not suposed to use blankets but they seem to sell them in Mamas&Papas so I guess they're just there to look nice really.
