My inspiration was this gorgeous quilt I came across on Flickr. I used one of my favorite newer lines, Joel Dewberry's Modern Meadow in Berry, paired with a natural colored linen/cotton blend.
This is the first time that I used embroidery in a quilt, and I am so happy with how it turned out! I went for a very simple patchwork layout with straight line quilting in order to highlight the embroidery.
So there you go, my entry for this year! If you haven't had a chance to enter yet, make sure you head on over to Amy's to join in the fun.
xoxo, Ang

I may be the first but I'm sure I won't be the last to say what a lovely quilt!
Oh, how wonderful and perfectly girly! The embroidery just makes it.
It's beautiful and so perfect for a little girl!!! She will treasure that all her life!!
I discovered you through this quilt. It is simply gorgeous! Great inspiration for us!!!
lovely~well, you knew that :)
I've loved that quilt since I first saw it:)
I remember this quilt! I favorited it on flickr before I actually knew you! It's gorgeous! I LOVE the embroidery, it gives it so much character!
And modern meadow + linen? Amazing!
too cute!
E' molto carino!
Ciao Domenica
I LOVE the stitching on your quilt. Beautiful!
I absolutely love this quilt! The embroidery and fabric choices are PERFECTION!
This is so beautiful. I'm currently working with the blue colorway of the same line and I love seeing the 'girly' version! The embroidery is gorgeous. And I love that you used a natural/linen color. It really warms it up rather than the grey that is so popular (and I've been staring at). It's funny because that color is so popular in scrapbooking, but you don't see it much in quilting.
Angela, i love this on so many levels. And you've inspired me! I have a patchwork planned that i think i'll incorporate some embroidery into!
Thanks for reminding me of this quilt! I think it is what helped me discover your blog. Love it!
Love the embroidery , beautiful quilt.

I love embroidery on a quilt. This is a very pretty quilt overall!
Really pretty!!!
Beautiful - as usual.
Just so sweet and gorgeous. The stitching looks wonderful.
Beautiful - the fabrics, the design, the stitching, and - last but not least - the name. Thanks for sharing!
This quilt is so adorable! I have it saved in my inspiration folder. Thanks for sharing it with us.
A beautiful quilt.
Oh wow, this is beautiful and how sweet with the embroidery, especially your daughter's name on it :) I'm going to have to bookmark this for later *grin*. I have made so many quilts over in my head for my daughter that if she actually had them all there wouldn't be any room for her in her bedroom *grin*.
i remember seeing this the first time you showed it on your blog, and it is still stunning....i love how well the modern meadow fabrics go with the neutral you used....it is so pretty and having her name on it is such a perfect touch.
It's beautiful, and I love the colors, too. They're so soft and perfect for a sweet baby girl.
Beautiful quilt! The embroidery really makes it extra sweet!
i love the embroidery. it really makes the quilt!
This is just lovely Angela! You did a beautiful job!
That is the sweetest quilt! i love the linen and embroidery ,goes fantastic with those fabrics, lovely!
I love the embroidery! What a nice touch to have your daughter's name in the quilt.
Ok I have only toyed with the idea of making a quilt. This is gorgeous and I would love to make this. How do I do that. Is it a pattern....?

Your quilt is pretty and the embroidery is delightful.
What a wonderful quilt! I love the embroidery accents. Your little girl is so lucky to have you for a mama. I'm a slacker mama who hasn't even started her baby boy's quilt yet, and he's 6 months old now. Hmmm... I better get on that! :)
that's so gorgeous, Angela and I'm honoured that you got inspiration from my quilt, thank you ;-) Yours has come out beautifully...lucky, lucky Finley ;-)
