My Aunt has asked me to make her grandson a quilt. He is one year old. She wants it to be animal themed like giraffe, monkey, lion, etc. Do any of you have any pattern suggestions?

Thanks so much!

I would do something simple. Especially if you get really cute fabric. Maybe something like a giant 9p that is made of smaller 9p's or something like that. if you find a couple of really cute animal prints and coordinate them with some tonal s or solids that would make it really sweet and simple to make and the mom wont be afraid that he would ruin it. hope this helps

here is a cute jungle theme quilt

Warm Wishes would be good. The larger square is about 5 or 6 inches, I think.

If you can do applique, you can go to coloring pages get the animals you want and do a quilt that way :lol: Or get fabric with the animals on it and do a 9 patch...

Warm Wishes is also nice and you can use a focus block with the animals :thumbup:

I SPY or Snowball blocks would be great to be able to see the animals.

This is also one of my favorite sites! These quilts are so cute.
