Finishing touches

After piecing all the blocks together the quilt would not be complete without being machine quilted by my sister, Linda.

Echoing the shape of a fox garment gave the best finishing touch to this block.











This little whale is one of our favourites.

His/her water spout bears a strong resemblance to paisley shapes which are often used in quilting patterns.












This little boy is a real star in his family's life and Linda has given special emphasis to the stars in these blocks by echoing around them.














Maybe sometimes he might be a little monkey too?

















He probably has the heart of a very brave lion!

Nearly finished now.
