Spring Quilt Festival

In case you are living under a rock and haven't heard about Amy's Spring Quilt Festival, then thank you because mine is obviously the only quilt blog you read. Either you know me and don't really care about quilting or - seriously - you need to get out more. There are soooo many other, better blogs that I hope mine will be like when it grows up!

Anyway, I'm late to the party but couldn't resist joining in. While I'd be hard pressed to pick my favorite quilt ever, I decided that my favorite that I could easily find a photo of is my Circle of Love quilt that I made last summer for Piper (can you believe she's almost 1? Me neither!).
I wrote all about it here but the reason I picked it is because it is so bright and happy. Also, because it was made 100% from my stash AND I designed the layout myself. I had always wanted to do a Jacob's Ladder block, but I didn't actually have a pattern for the quilt. I was so pleased with how it all came together, and so happy to pass it along to Piper.

Also, I think the name "Circle of Love" kind of goes with the theme of Amy's quilt festival - all of the different blogs showing off their favorite quilts and linking back to one another is like our own circle of quilting love. But now I'm getting sappy...

So I'm off to lose time daydreaming over all of the other gorgeous quilts. You should really swing by for a look. They are FABULOUS! Thanks, Amy, for pulling it together. You rock!
