Quilt 18 - Basket Case 2


 I had enough fabric/blocks left from the quilt I made for my daughter at Christmas to make another whole quilt. It went together quite easily since the blocks were already put together. I used up almost every single bit of the fabric - I like that!
This is for some friends of ours that really need a 'hug' this week. I put a flannel backing for warmth.

Quilt 17!

I have two great nephews coming soon so it's time for more baby quilts!
 This fabric was chosen because of the nautical theme for the baby's room. It is a simple pattern, Snapshots, from the book, Happy Hour, by Atkinson Designs.
Here is a close up. I was really happy that I decided to do the binding on the bias with the stripe. Just adds a special touch to it in my opinion. The parents were thrilled with the quilt and hopefully Alston is, too.
