I’ve been busy the past few weeks making a lap quilt for Emma for her birthday. She came down yesterday & we had a great day.
You may notice a theme here, Emma loves green.
The quilt, it’s lap size, 48” x 60”. I stippled the blocks & hand quilted the circle section using ‘big stitch quilting’ & candlewicking cotton. I’m a convert, love it, much easier than trying to get tiny stitches & I really love the look of it.
I found this pretty border online, added my message & printed it out.
I love quilts with legs!!
The cake!!! I made it & dh decorated it, pretty spiffy.
Yes Emma loves cats, she doesn’t have one as her partner is allergic.
& the gorgeous birthday girl.
I’m not sure if Zaphod was guarding the pressies or
thought he was one, lol.

Your quilt looks great and I bet the birthday was good fun too.
Jan, gorgeous quilt, gorgeous cake and gorgeous cat...if not careful Zaphod might be mistaken for cake! Love it.
I can't believe you have a 27 yo child, you must have only been a child youself when she was born!!!!!LOL Love the green theme and the cake looks delish!
Thanks Karen, Sweet Pea & Julie. Zaphod needs to watch out he doesn't end up being served for Xmas, that's our turkey platter he loves to sleep on. Julie should I mention my 29yo son? :-) Yes I was a child bride at 19, first baby at 21. How that time has flown!!!
