    Cool Finished Baby Quilt...

    I have finished the baby quilt for my new grandson due in June!
    My daughter asked for a "mint green and gray" quilt and sent me paint chips so I could match colors.
    Here is the finished product...

    The front is just green and gray chevrons, but on the back I added a "pop" of color with the orange!

    Cute! That's a fun idea for the back, is it also cotton or flannel or ?

    I remember when you asked about this, it's beautiful love the colors, the back was the perfect place to add your pop of color. With your great quilting the back can be the front too.

    It is cotton...no flannel...and the green backing matches the front better than the picture shows.

    Love your finished quilt. The back was a good place to put that orange pop, really makes it visually interesting.
