I have never formally kept track of start/finish dates and progress.   I hope this will help me keep on track.  It will be interesting to be able to look back at the journey and hopefully progressing skills.

Finished the top for the first baby quilt -- "Under the Sea"    I  believe I am going to take off the last row.   It seems out of proportion to me and besides will make it more approximately the same size as the next baby quilt to do.

Now time to move on to baby quilt no. 2.    I complete tops and then do all the sandwiching/quilting for them.    My BEST piecing machine is my Janome 1600P but it is also my machine to use with my HandiQuilter frame.   Until I get another machine I am comfortable piecing with, I make several tops and then do the finishing.

Here is the panel for the top.   I need to add 12" to the top and to the bottom to make it approximate size of the baby quilt no. 1.    These are going to be delivered at the same time.  I have no idea what I am going to do.   Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I have this selection of fabrics on hand that match those of the panel (not sure they will appear so on this page though)  The dark color is almost the same as Tigger's coat. 

 

This is my backing fabric.
