Something for Kate ... at last!

This little quilt has been finished for a while now, and has been patiently waiting to have its photo taken. The weather remains dismal, so she is not in her best light.


It is (unsurprisingly!) a gift for Kate, a new niece.


The fabrics are from Melanie Hurlston's happy fabric range called 'Little Menagerie' for Windham Fabrics.


The fabrics feature owls, monkeys, and elephants in Melly's inimitable sweet style.


 

The pattern is the little version of my 'Abracadabra' pattern.


This quilt makes me happy. I hope it makes Kate happy too :)
