This one is for my granddaughter, Livia. She has always loved to dance, sometimes like a ballerina or silly and funny like the Grinch.  Watching her get lost in the moves, graceful or silly, warms this gramma's heart.
 
Here is the Link to the Be A Ballerina pattern from Be Sew Inspired. 

 I  did change it up and left out the side curtains.  The full width was too much for the 60 inch wide minky backing.


 I  had the pink fabric, but Livia picked out the blue,  purple  and multicolored fabric.



I also replaced the flowers with my granddaughter's name.



Machine quilted, free motion....a bit of a challenge since I  usually do big stitch hand quilting and was very out of practice. 



Our silly girl;
