Default In the works - Baby Honu quilt

I am making this quilt for my new granddaughter due in August. The pattern is by Lisa Boyer and is called Baby Honu. It's a combination of paper pieced and appliqued blocks. I just finished the paper pieced blocks and need to applique the turtles onto the background so I can assemble the top. The legs, head and tail are loose, held down by the shell. It's such a cute pattern. Here is a link:

Sew cute. I love that the parts aren't sewn down. More interest for your DGD to be.

It's very cute. Perfect for any new baby, but extra special when it comes from Grandma!

I made the same quilt pattern and my son loves it. I really like your color choices. We both used one of the same blue fabrics. I also like your baby turtles. I didn't think to try that. My turtle shells were alot wonkier as it was my first applique...
