November's One Monthly Goal, A Tractor Crib Quilt & A Finish!

My One Monthly Goal for November is a crib quilt for the new grandchild arriving in December. 

This tractor pattern is perfect if the baby is a boy.

The pattern is available from Counted Quilts. They have a large variety of quilt designs. 

The fabrics are cut and ready to be sewn. The pieces are labeled so I can keep everything straight.

My goal is to not only have the quilt flimsy pieced but quilted also. 

This will be quite a a challenge but I think I can do it.

The quilting has happened for the Grandmother's Flower Garden crib quilt. I'm pretty proud of my quilting, the best I've done so far. She bound and finished! She is not a designated quilt so she'll stay here until a need arises.

I think the flowers look like they are floating on the quilt.

And a look at the back. Of course I used some of mom's stash, what little girl doesn't love lavender?

I used a larger Baptiste Fan on the sides. Why? I don't know, I just did. I doubt any baby will care about it.

She has finished at 36" by 41". I normally like to make crib quilts larger than this but it was time for her to be finished.

Not very much applique has happened here lately. I cut the tip of my left thumb and it is very sore. I need to keep a band-aid on it and it causes problems appliqueing. I spent my evenings quilting the crib quilt.
