Super sweet! Although I usually make 'baby themed' quilts for babies, I love the traditional patterns made much smaller for the wee ones. Great job!

Thanks folks. The parents are pretty traditional, and they didn’t have a theme or theme for the nursery when I needed to get started so I chose a traditional pattern in a gender neutral color. A lot of this one was made in our old travel trailer and our new motorhome, so I used it to figure out what worked for my sewing in a small space. One of the biggest things is that I really don’t have a place to press anything bigger than a row, and even that was hard. I think I will stick with piecing blocks while on the road and assembling quilts when I get home with my big ironing board. As it was, I have some twisted seams because I was too lazy to fix what happened. Still cute I think, and it will be a great floor quilt.

This is the second I did for babies recently. Here was the first one. At least that one was finished before the baby arrived!

Beautiful. I love the rich quality a two color quilt has. Hope the parents love it. Your quilting is simple and appropriate. It makes the quilt feel warm and loved.

I love your feather stitch binding technique! Quilt is a beauty too.
