                        It looks great!! The colors are beautiful!   I love it!  Yes, you should tell us all how you did it... I am having a hard enough time just putting a ruffle on my little girls skirt!
                        Can you post a picture of the whole quilt.  I would love to see it!

                          Yay, sugarscrap!  I was wondering how your ruffle edge was progressing.  Did you use the prairie point method I sent or did you try something else??

                          It looks fabulous!

                            heres what i did...

                            made ruffle..
                            sewed ruffle to top of backing & batting..
                            turned ruffle over 1/4" towards inside..
                            ironed to keep it in place..
                            turned quilt top under to hide seam of ruffle..
                            i usually use glue to do this step and then it washes out when i wash it....
                            sewed a decorative stitch through all 3 layers, top side up....
                            ironed again and then washed...



                            sorry about the lighting but this is the front of the quilt...



                            back of quilt..

                              Super cute! I have a book around here with a pattern for a baby blanket with a ruffle... I think they made a much wider one, but I like how you did it!
                              And I LOVE the color scheme! Gorgeous!
