    Love your quilts. Batiks are hard to use for a baby quilt. I know because I just finished one today. I especially like the one with the fish on it. I'll bet it was a big hit.

TTo see.o so to taky my mind off things planning a baby quilt. the five guys quilt is like the hidden wells quilt pattern. sorry for problems with letters and words but my tablet is not the easiest to type with. i love batiks so that is why i choose them. they will last a long time and grow with the kid. my other two have quilts in batiks.

    I know the fabrics don't scream baby, but I think a good baby quilt needs to grow with the kid, that's why I always make mine extra big and something that might suit a young child too.

    What about something like this?

    Wow. I looked at the fabric and thought, "That's not baby fabric." Then I saw your batik baby quilt and had to rethink that. What a gorgeous use of batik and a really awesome baby quilt. It would look great with Sahm's fabrics.

    it went together very quickly.
