birthdays of April part 2

so with my big girls birthday in april too it was must to do a quilt for her as well....we have such a volcanic relationship at times i really want to give her something that is full of love and heart...
and a surprise....
mums upper hand being she lives at her dads(yuk) different town (yuk) which allows me to pull it off...
to my husband horror lol off to spot light we went to find to find some mummy inspiration...of which was not hard to do spotlight -candy store spotlight candy store...lol
then to the design board ..teens can be so hard to pick for so glad i have a very inspiring family my wonderful miss9 suggested flowers  and flowers it was..i stubbled a cross this awesome flower design  with  2 days of cutting  layering and then ironing  6 block flowers began to grow



have to say when i stayed to work on this quilt i was a lil sick with the choices i made ...but i had this vision ..


santa gave me this wizz bang sewing machine at christmas ..and omg it is the best....so many stitches to choose....blanket stitch u are my 2nd best friend


colours slowly coming together



lil hard to see but i machined stitched curly leaves when its all  sandwiched together there be another 2 lots of stitching rounds to make it look more like leaves





with so many colours i have been able to do lots of logs in a rainbow effect  as border to pull it all together
