Below is a picture showing how I quilted it. I quilted approx. 1/8" (I didn't aim for perfection!) on each side of all seam lines with the exception of the half square triangles. I debated about doing those and thought it might be a bit much on a little quilt like this.
Just a little closer view of stitching and fabric......
Then she was thrown in the wash and here she is in her wrinkly, shrinkly goodness. After only one hot wash and dryer experience. She will get a few more because I want her to look a bit worn.
Thanks again Lori for a fun quilt-long!
And thanks for reading....

Beautiful! I love how you have it displayed in the first picture! Very nice!
Thanks for sharing the quilting. It looks great.
Love your pink lemonade.
I too like the washed scrunchy look for this one.
I like the way you quilted this. I agree that it would be too much to do the half square triangles on a small one like this.
Great fabric choices. I always wash my quilts as soon as they are done, too. Love the crinkly texture.
I like your quilting!

Nice quilting.
Great finish on your lemonade quilt! Lots of great eye candy following Lori's links.
The quilting adds so much charm to this already charming version! Congratulations on a full finish--mine just became a flimsy :)
Judy, What lovely photography. The vintage oil lamp and books provide such nice props for the Pink Lemonade quilt. I love the way I can see your quilting stitches on the other photo. Marvelous job!

I love the different yellow in the setting squares - I did that too (with blue). Love the photo with the lantern.
