Baby Girl Quilt

I finally got another quilt made! Wahoo! This is a baby quilt for my niece whose baby is due in just a few days. I must get it in the mail today, even though it will probably be a while before she can use it with these very bright fabrics. Don't want to hurt the baby's eyes so early. However, my niece loves bright and colorful rooms - like turquoise walls or wavy fuschia lines in the nursery, so I think it will be okay. It did turn out a little busier than I expected. Oh well!
Here is an up close view showing more dwirling quilting. I really enjoying doing this and it can just be filled with swirls or just whatever you want.
Maybe the design is visible on the back also. It's a little calmer than the front! This pattern is Triple Treat Petite from the book "Happy Hour" by Atkinson Designs. I love the way she writes patterns that are SO EASY to follow and has so many different size quilts to choose from also. It was simple but great for highlighting fun fabrics that don't need to be cut up.
