Default Just Couldn't Cut This Fabric.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]514685[/ATTACH]. My ex DIL is having a baby and I wanted to make her a baby quilt. We have a wonderful relationship due to her being Camden's mommy. I had a pattern in mind but then found I just couldn't cut the fabric. It was just too cute!!! So decided to square it up and treated it like a panel. I wanted pink and black zebra stripe but couldn't find a pink that it played nice with so used black and white zebra print. I hope she'll be happy with it. Stitching down the backside of the binding now so should have it ready to send tomorrow.

Sometimes a whole cloth quilt is the best with some fabrics. Great idea, still made by you and will be well loved.

I see nothing wrong with whole cloths and panels. Yours is great! I have always tried to keep a good relationship with my ex DIL because of the girls. Besides the problems were between the couple not me and the kids. Love your quilt and so will she.
