Baby Quilt for Charity

I purchased 8 yards of this fabric for only $7.99 at the thrift store (score!) and am going to make 3 or 4 baby quilts out of it, practicing a different FMQ motif on each one. This time I did a concentric circle that sort of looks like windy clouds. Fun to do and by the time I was done I had the motif down pat.

great idea! and sooooo cute! I often use these "boarder fabrics" as backings. The kids (and Moms) are going to love these. Nice quilting skills too.

Cute quilt and nice job on the circle quilting! Border prints make neat Triangle Frenzy table runners.
