a Penny Patch Finish

I wouldn't have made this quilt if it wasn't for you all - for your love of my first Penny Patch, Vintage Tangerine, which prompted me to create a quilt-along.  Thank-you.  It's been perfectly delightful!

As always, I have plenty of projects on my "must do" list.  Having this wee baby Penny Patch to play with as well, and at such a leisurely pace, was a nice winter treat.  In the quilting I remembered - Again! - that I do so enjoy the action of dogwood quilting, not just the results.  I bound her in Kona Plum with a flourish of red thread zigzag finish.

Unfortunately, the yet-to-be-born baby for whom I imagined this color scheme turned out to be a boy!  So, this morning I've listed it on Etsy.  She hopes to find a little person who appreciates violet, plum, coral, strawberries, fairies, flowers and cursive text prints.  Crossing fingers!
