    My manager at work recently had a adorable baby boy.
    I told her when she first said she was pregnant I would make a baby quilt for her. Well she and her DH love motorcycles and the quilt to have motorcycles in it. Well... easier said than done! For starters trying to find any fabric with motorcycles in baby boy colors/prints is impossible to find! So I settled for some primary colors with retro cycles on it. Her baby boy is now almost three months and I just now finished this! I just didn't like it. I did buy a new piece for the back, fleece, and that helped some. Any way here it is... Still don't really like it, but I think he will as he gets older and carries a "blankie" around!

    It is nice and bright, great for a baby. All that matters is that the parents like it and baby likes it.

    Its so cute! It's difficult sometimes to incorporate the parent's likes into a baby quilt. You did VERY well!! They will love it!
