baby girl quilt

I started this quilt back in March of 2008 ... newly pregnant and convinced I was having a girl (all the old wives tales confirmed it!).

I was 95% done when I ran out of thread. Isn't that the worst? It got put in a drawer and forgotten, then neglected completely when the ultrasound said all boy.

Flash forward to last month ... I am packing up my apartment and come across the quilt. Eager to procrastinate the nasty packing task, I finished it up on the spot and decided to send it off to my brother and sister-in-law, who are having their first baby (a girl, of course) in August. I really LOVE the fabric (it was a fat quarter bundle from Purl Soho), so I hesitated sending it away. But if I know anything about fabric, it is that there is always more out there to buy.
