A hint of pink quilt

I made this quilt for my niece for Christmas using a simple fence rail quilt block.  I adjusted the size of the strips to make the finished quilt approximately 40" by 45"....the perfect size for cuddling up on the couch with.  I personalized it by simply adding a 5 1/2" wide solid strip of fabric and appliqueing her name onto that.  I also added a puffy heart after her name simply by applying some batting under the heart I cutout and securing it using a zig zag stitch.  I finished it by stitching in the ditch in various places along the quilt.
