My dear friend Sharon is expecting a baby girl any day now, so the friends in our weekly knit nite club decided to make her a baby quilt.
Ok, well it wasn't quite like that.
I sorta tricked them into learning how to quilt and talked them into making it.
It was a really fun group project where we had some experienced quilters and some folks that were totally new to it and missing their crochet hooks often during the process.
In the end, all the blocks came out so nice and it looks like a unified whole quilt, which is amazing with so many hands working on it.
I wanted to show you pictures of this since I've been playing around with it for so long now, but it was a surprise gift so we all had to keep photos off our blogs.
More stories about the quilt on the next post. I have a bunch of photos of it. Hopefully I can get them up on a flickr set for you. The group worked really hard on it and it turned out just beautiful.
Now all we need is the baby.

Hope the baby arrives soon and safely, the quilt looks wonderful and what a great project getting everybody involved.
