Do I understand this to mean triplets are on the way?!
This quilt is very cute and makes nice use of the fabric. For smaller quilts using the same fabric, perhaps you could fussy cut the little animals and use the landscape areas in more random ways. I could see it in something like a double Irish chain, with the light pink as the negative space and rows of the darker pink squares on either side of the green squares. By chance, I found a site showing the assembly of a double Irish chain that actually has a similar color arrangement, with a green print as the central chain. And it's small, only 9 blocks. http://catpatches.blogspot.com/2012/...nstructed.html You could, if so inclined, applique more of the adorable butterflies in the center of the light pink blocks.
