"Farmyard Friends" baby quilt



Hi all:

.


My nephew and his lovely wife recently had their first baby; a boy, so naturally I wanted to make them a quilt for the baby.  This was the perfect opportunity to use up that cute farm animal fabric I had been saving. I cut up squares and used strips I had left over from another baby quilt and patched it all together in a hap-hazard way.  I think it turned out very well.  What do you think?

Here, I am trying different layouts for the strips.

How cute is this fabric?

Here you can see the meandering quilting I had a professional quilter do on it. I have basically given up trying to machine quilt on my machine.

Here it is, bound, backed and ready to love.  I found this cute flannel farm animal fabric that just happened to work perfectly with the colours.

Another happy quilt for another happy baby.

Happy sewing,

Rosie
