Rocking Chair and Quilting

Ginny got a rocking chair from my dad or "Pop" as he is known here. Here she is really happy to have it. Thanks Pop!Violet also loved it. As soon as I put her in it she started rocking. I had no idea she even knew how.So my mom visited last weekend and she made a pad from my baby bassinet fabric for the rocking chair. Nice work mom! So I was inspired by the blanket that matched the bassinet fabric. Using the technique I learn from the three classes on sewing I took last year, I made a small quilt for Giraffee.Here's the back. This is my first quilted quilt rather than tied quilt.

Here is a close up. My bears mouths are askew but still cute.

sooooo cute! I didn't know you could sew as well - we have more in common than I realized! :)

wow, great job! That's so neat the rocking chair is from their grandpa, customized by grandma, and you put the mommy touch in by making accessories (kind of). :) cute! I love the rocking chair--it's beautiful!
