Detail of houndstooth baby quilt bubble quilting

A very stylish friend of mine is about to become a mom. A cutesy baby quilt would not suffice! I made her this small quilt in a trendy houndstooth plaid motif.

I machine-quilted it in fun bubble patterns using my free-motion foot.

I  used “Susie’s Magic Binding” technique to add the pop of turquoise piping. This technique is super easy and looks great.
