fit to wrap a little Princess in

This past February my sister had her fourth child, and first baby girl. She was named after her most amazing aunt (and her grandmother but really it's all about her aunt). Walking into the hospital room after M was born was walking into an explosion of pink. I decided I was going make Miss M a delicious little quilt as precious and girly as she is. I kept it simple so I could finish it in time for her Baptism in May. I finished in the nick of time, taking up the last few stitches the day before her Baptism. I adore the combination of fabrics from simple cottons to eyelet to silky satin to the flannel to the soft plush pink. I also adore the colors of pinks, whites and greens. This project was so satisfying. I think mostly because I actually finished it.
