Lily's Quilt

Lily's quilt is my version of the traditional Trip Around the World pattern. It was designed to complement the nursery decor that Lily inherited from big brother Noah (see Noah's Quilt, below), but emphasizing the more feminine colors in the set. I even used a couple of the same fabrics from Noah's quilt. I had so much fun picking fabrics for this quilt that I couldn't bear to repeat any of them - I had to have room for as many as possible! I finished Lily's quilt in the spring of 2005.

I got to visit Noah and Lily in December, and see their quilts again. The quilts are now 5 and 2 years old, and I think they look even better now that they've been loved for a while.
