Baby Quilts

Oh my gosh! A patterned fabric has made its way into my recent sewing projects. When I saw Carolyn Gavin’s  “BFFs” for Windham Fabrics, I had to order it and fortunately had reason to, my cousin and his wife had a baby girl.

My Pusheen kitty quite likes to snuggle with this little blanket and I hope the little girl will too.

On the smaller solid squares I hand stitched hearts. I free motion quilted the solid borders that frame the kitty fabric.

 

The backing is a pretty delicate floral print.

This cousin has a brother, and he and his wife welcomed a baby boy recently. Here is his quilt:

My swamp thing “Swampy” found his way into it to have a good snuggle before it is shipped out!

I used a baby book fabric pannel for the blocks and tried some wavy FMQ lines, the backing is a soft flannel.

Both are small “cuddle quilts” that the simple layout for I drew out on graph paper.

These two cousins are much younger than me, but I think some of my critter collection revealed here says I’m young at  heart?!

Linking up with Becca of Pretty Piney’s What I Made Monday and Sherry’s Friday Foto Fun.

Thanks for visiting and wishing you well! 💜
