Hello and HAPPY FRIDAY, everyone! If you've come looking for the Thank Goodness It's FINISHED Friday Linky Party, welcome -- you're in the right place. I'm delighted to be hosting this week's finish party.
I'm so excited to share my finish this week. I know I say this a lot, but I found another new favorite edge-to-edge quilting design that I am crushing on this week:

37 x 37 HST Baby Quilt with Echo Bubble Meander E2E |
This 37" x 37" quilt top was pieced by a fellow member of the Charlotte Quilters' Guild for our Outreach Committee, and it will be donated to one of the NICUs at our local hospitals. When I was first given this top for quilting, I considered custom quilting it with individual motifs in each of the white triangle units. However, once I had the quilt top in my studio and was thinking about where this quilt was headed and it's job of comforting and encouraging a tiny, fragile baby and his worried parents, custom quilting just seemed too formal and too stiff -- literally too stiff, potentially, if it was heavily custom quilting, but too rigid psychologically as well. I wanted this quilt to be soft and cuddly, playful and fun. And then I found this Echo Bubble Meander E2E (Edge-to-Edge) quilting design by Joyce Lundrigan of Methodist Hill Quilt Studio, and knew it would be perfect to bring positive energy and love to the family who receives it.
