Swanky Pin Wheel for Piper is Finished...







Both Swanky baby quilts are finished and ready to deliver. I can tell my machine quilting improved from the first to the second but I still need a lot of practice.

They are very sweet quilts. You can only get better at machine quilting by doing it. I don't think the babies will notice,lol. It looks good to me, all crinkly and cosy.
