When I first started quilting, I wanted to make a quilt for _everyone_ I knew. I still would like to do that, I am just way behind and don't have the time! At that time, I found out that my sister-in-law's sister was pregnant with a baby girl and I was so excited! I couldn't wait to make her a pretty, little girl quilt! The quilt I found that I wanted to make was called [Stacks of Sweets](http://juicy-bits.typepad.com/juicy_bits/2009/03/79-stacks-of-sweets.html). I thought it was so cute and decided to do the colors in brown, green, pink and yellow mostly. I did not have a pattern and it required a lot of exact measurements. This meant I did a lot of measuring, cutting, sewing, remeasuring and resewing! It was quilted together by sewing down the lines and the back is a super soft baby blanket. It is kind of small, measuring about 30 inches by 20 inches. It took me about 24 hours in total to complete the quilt - from cutting fabric to finishing binding. I was glad to have this ready for Baby Emma when she was born. ![21538_10150099451225035_4362630_n.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmYYYN9RPxnZAqKfhy95CRnZKvXzBisgPfj6RE8Bm7rvu7/21538_10150099451225035_4362630_n.jpg) . ![21538_10150099451245035_812640_n.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmU8uaioMh7CrB79wvg4iYvq5cobFjMwBM7jm6rF7JcKQT/21538_10150099451245035_812640_n.jpg) **Take a peek at my other quilt posts:** [8 Sponge Bob Quilt](https://steemit.com/quilting/@apanamamama/the-special-number-8-sponge-bob-quilt-i-made-for-my-nephew-make-it-monday-by-a-panama-mama) [First (and Only) Triangle Zig Zag Quilt](https://steemit.com/quilting/@apanamamama/my-first-and-only-zig-zag-chevron-quilt-with-triangles-make-it-monday-by-a-panama-mama) [First Quilt for my Baby Boy](https://steemit.com/makeitmonday/@apanamamama/my-first-quilt-for-my-baby-boy-make-it-monday-by-a-panama-mama) [Purple Disappearing 9 Patch Quilt](https://steemit.com/makeitmonday/@apanamamama/a-panama-mama-s-make-it-monday-purple-disappearing-9-patch-quilt) **<><><><><><><><><><><><>** **Make It Monday** will be brought to you here every Monday by A Panama Mama.
