I managed one more finish in the final few hours of 2020. I actually have another project I finished a few days ago that I haven't blogged yet, but that will need to wait a few more days. I set my OMG with Patty of Elm Street Quilts to finish a Big Sister gift for the 2-year-old daughter of a coworker. Young Miss N became a big sister last month! I finished baby brother M's baby quilt earlier in December and wanted something to give big sis at the same time. I decided on a doll quilt.
One of the sizes I used for cutting my scraps is 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" rectangles. I went through my stash of I Spy scraps and paired them with some Kona Lemon. I laid them out with rows of like colors on the diagonal. It sewed up very quickly!
I used a wavy serpentine stitch for the quilting; I like the texture it adds.

The back is two different dog prints that I had in bag of leftover I Spy fabrics a friend gave me--I've been using a lot of her scraps lately. I hope big sister M enjoys the quilt with a doll or stuffed animal!
