A New Project for the New Year!

My niece, Karen is expecting a baby girl this coming April.  Last week we went to Mission Rose to pick out some fabric for her quilt.

We picked out Terrain by Kate Spain for Moda (I love this line!).  Karen’s theme is owls.  I found a picture we both liked and I started it today.

This is how far I got today.  I want to sew down this layer before adding the momma and baby owl. I am loving it already!

The quilt is going to be a variation on a Chinese Coins pattern. (I got the idea from a quilt on Moda Bake Shop) This will be part of the center of the quilt.

Karen’s shower is Feb. 11. Will it be completed in time? Stay tuned!
