Here are some pictures documenting the journey:
Peter was so shocked that I was using a sewing machine, he had to take a picture!

Close up!At first I was pretty embarrassed by how poorly sewn this quilt is, but I have come to the conclusion that a poorly sewn quilt is better than no quilt at all. I'm actually kinda proud of it :) Hopefully the child who receives this quilt will know how much fun I had making it and will be able to enjoy it as well. I don't know that this really qualifies me as being domestic, but I'm surely on my way!

You are SO domestic! :) Wanna make Lillian's quilt for me? At the rate I'm going, it won't be done til she's 12!
That is a very nice quilt. As a side note, I think your shirt is funny.
You Steelers Traitor!
My sister-in-law got it for me. I would never actually purchase Eagles gear. She thought it would make me more well-rounded. :) So far, it hasn't helped!
It's beautiful! I love it! Way to go on being domestic. I can just imagine the look on Pete's face! :)
I am thoroughly impressed! I don't think I could even turn a sewing machine on! It looks great!
I love the quilt and am so proud of you for making it, Amanda! You should feel very happy that some little one will love what you made!
