Annive's Bedding

I finished all of the bedding for my newest niece's room a while ago, but my sister just opened the package a few days ago.

Here is the quilt, the main attraction- which took the longest. The big flower is a quilt square made by my maternal grandmother, Annive, my namesake (as well as my niece's namesake).

It was my dad's idea to incorporate the quilt square, and I think it makes the quilt extra special.

Another one of my favorite features on the quilt are the ruffles I used for grass at the bottom.

I embroidered the ric-rac on the ruffles and the stems on the flowers.

And of course, the bird is pretty cool, too, if I say so myself.

I also made bumper pads using all of the fabrics I used in the quilt.

I think they are my favorite part of all.

Last, I made this bird mobile using the embroidery hoop I used to embroider the quilt.

You better believe that it feels good to have finished this- I feel like it's a huge accomplishment, and I'm really pleased with how everything turned out!
