Fresh and Feminine

Disclosure: This is not my quilt. I would never pick such feminine, romantic, fresh fabrics. Don't get me wrong, I love this quilt. That's the joy I get doing longarm quilting for other people. I get to work on quilts that I'd never make in a million years, not because I don't like them, just because they are not my style.
My customer and this quilt are a perfect match. By looking at this quilt you get an idea of the person she is. I think that's the beauty of quilting, a little or a lot of our personality shines through in our projects.
Just a couple more pics.
I kept the quilting fresh and floral. She's going to hang this quilt on a wall. You can't help but feel good when you see this quilt, it just makes me smile!
Here is my progress with my baskets. I was selling tickets yesterday so I got 2 or 3 more stitched down.
I have a long list of things to do, it's raining today, but I'm going to turn on the US Open mens finals, Go Rafa! He's so cute! Plus I can get another basket or two stitched!

I enjoy soft (That is what I call them) quilts but I have never made one myself. You must get to see and be inspired by all kinds of work. Your baskets are coming along. TV is a good time to work on them.

I think "soft colored" quilts have a charm all their own? I enjoy seeing them, but they're not my style. You quilted it beautifully.
Your little baskets are coming along nicely. They're a fun pick up project. :)
