I used the Hawaiian fabric from Lisa along with some stash fabric. I think it turned out very sweet.
I love how it was quilted. It is quilted with hibiscus flowers all over which fits perfectly with the theme of the quilt.
The quilt back is fun fabric but really soft. It is from a fabric line that says "premium cotton" on the selvage and it feels like really expensive sheets. The name of it is Girly Girl Pink Vines. Laurel showed it to me when I was at Broadbent's. I can imagine after it is washed that it will feel soft as a cloud. I took the quilt to Ashley's baby on Saturday. She's so cute.
I'm donating this quilt I made from my pattern that was in Fon's and Porter last year (it isn't the quilt that was in the magazine but one I made later) to Lu Lu. Lu Lu is the daughter of Liz and James, our friends. Go to Lu Lu's blog to read about her.
Friends of sweet little Lu Lu are having a community benefit to raise money for a liver transplant. The benefit is November 10 in Murray, Utah.
Any help you could offer to Lu Lu would be of great benefit. You can email Julia at urlgurl77@gmail.com for more information. Look at her, she is so sweet.-nanette

Seeing your baby quilt makes me want to make it again. (which I will be soon). Lulu is a cutie. My best to her family.
Sweet baby quilt. And the quilt your donating for Lu Lu is lovely. Hope it brings a lot of money to help this sweet little girl.
What a sweet little girl and beautiful (as always) quilts! It's heartbreaking when one of these little ones has to suffer.
Beautiful quilts Nanette and what an adorable child LuLu is! My prayers will be with her and her family.
You're such a sweetheart Nanette! Lulu is adorable -- how very heartbreaking. Both of your quilts are beautiful!
As usual, I just love your quilts and the fabric you chose. Darling!
Lulu is a little doll! You have got to be the kindest person I know. Thanks for making us aware of her.
Each quilt is lovely and all girly. Glad you posted about all of them and LuLu, too.
Those are both beautiful quilts! I love your blog; I'm so glad I found it today... :)

The baby quilt is so adorable....Sweet Lulu, she gorgeous, I hate to see little ones suffer and go through so much so early in life..

What a beautiful little girl! She will certainly be in my prayers!
What absolutely fabulous little quilts! The quilting is just perfect for them!
My Grandson had a liver transplant when he was 14 months old and is now a rambunctious 3 year old. Love the fact that so many kind people are raising funds for little Lulu. I also have the say the greatest gift of all is the gift of a donor, god bless.
The baby quilts are so sweet. They look like they turned out wonderfully to me!
