Caitlin's Quilt

I set out to make a super simple quilt for Cailtin with the leftover fabric from Eric's quilt. I guess I tried to rush too much (because I needed to get my machine in to be serviced before the movers come) and I kept making tons of mistakes. Her last name was going to be appliquéd on the bottom but the pattern on the fabric was slanted and made the lettering look crooked. So I took that off. Then I bought Minky fabric for the back and I have used it in the past with no problem. This time, I guess I didn't pin well because the fabric all bunched up and I had to remove all the quilting (28 rows) and start completely over. It is finally done but has many flaws. Hopefully she won't care or notice too much. It's a mini version of Eric's quilt.
