At long last, the houndstooth quilt for our baby boy is completed. Can I get a “Hallelujah?”
I’m pretty much in love with it. And quite happy it’s completed. It ended up being quite a labor of love for me. (If you are interested, the pattern is available for purchase from V and Co.)
While certainly far from perfect, with plenty of issues, I think it’s lovely and perfect for our little boy.
The top is made from Kona solids in white and navy. The backing and binding are navy dots.
I tried long-arm quilting again with an allover pattern. This is my first time with hand binding, and while it was more time-consuming, I definitely prefer the end result.

Looks awesome Kim, you did a great job. It’s a perfect nursery addition. Imagine in 19 yrs. that quilt will probably go to college
Wow, it’s beautiful Kim! You did a great job, and I can’t even imagine how much time and patience that took! Your little guy will love it too, I’m sure!
“While certainly far from perfect, with plenty of issues,”…I want to punch you. But I won’t. Because you’re pregnant.
Holy awesome quilt. I need a Michelle sized. Get on that before this kid sucks all of your time away.
Your super supportive friend,
Michelle
I’ll say it again, you are amazing. Far from perfect my hiney! The quilt looks perfect from where I am sitting!
I love it Kim! It looks amazing. Your little one will love it!
That looks awesome! Great job Kim! Such a great gift for your little guy too.
It’s just beautiful Kim! I can’t imagine the time that took to make all those stitches. Baby Dub is so loved
It’s perfecto! I loved the other Alli’s comment about in 19 years it will be going to college with him. Such a treasure, Kim! So proud of you! Much love – Allie E.
it looks great!! and i’m sure you will be so happy years from now to think about the time you spent making it while he was still inside – and thinking of the times he spent enjoying it!
You are amazing! I am constantly in awe of your quilting talents, that is so so gorgeous! Bravo my friend!

Reading this i thought “you made this?!” wow, it looks gorgeous! Bet a baby snuggled in it will look even better =]
You are a ROCKSTAR!!
I’m so impressed 
Just amazing! Ill take one too!
Ummm, I think it’s fabulous!!!! Love the houndstooth and the navy and white color scheme and polka dot backing and binding. I want to be like you, your crafty skilled lady!
Amazing! Can I have an adult-sized version? I’m sure little Dub will love it.
Kim! The quilt is absolutely beautiful! I can only imagine the patience, determination and attention that the project took, so congrats! One step closer to meeting your little man…
It’s everything I thought it would be. And I thought it would be spectacular. And I also thought youd be making two of them. Ahem, one for H and one for G? You know it would look fantastic in that British gentleman’s room. But for reals, I can’t believe you’re still pumping things out, I think I set up camp on the couch by this point and made John bring me ice creams. You should follow my lead.
Beautiful!
You are so talented! It’s gorgeous Kim!
It’s crazy gorgeous, great job!
Love Love Love! I hope that you will make me a quilt one day!
Love the quilt, and your railings look awesome!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful . . . I just can’t say it enough times. I LOOOOOOVE how the quilt came out, and it is officially going on my to-do list. It looks gorgeous!
AMAZING!!! I’m in love with this one!!! GORGEOUS Kim!!
I am in complete awe. It is so sophisticated and whimsical at the same time. You inspire me to want to learn to quilt.
