Kylie's Favorite Color

Kylie My niece Kylie loves the quilt I made for my MIL with minkee on the back, and wants to cuddle up with it every time she's visiting her Meme.


Apparently Kylie asked my DH if she might have a minkee quilt of her own for her birthday at the end of September.  Cousin Lily (my DD) said it had to be green, as that has always been Kylie's favorite color.  So I dug through my stash and found some wonderful greens, added a few more from the shop where I work (I love the "toast frogs") and using another of Elizabeth Hartman's fabulous patterns, I made this 9-patch lattice quilt for Kylie.   I have some white minkee for the back, and I think the birthday girl will love it!

  5. You've developed a fondness for wonky! This cold not be more cute, great job on the greens. I think greens are the hardest color to match!
