    Default No so babyish quilt

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]509397[/ATTACH]My niece was having her third boy and found a picture of this quilt and asked if I could make it for her. I bit my lip and said sure, not sure how or if I could. She was so thrilled she had me make the bumper pad as well.

    Aren't you the clever one. This is super cute and I don't wonder why she asked you to do the pads. Love it when we are able to fulfill our loved ones wishes. BrendaK

    Thanks Brenda, my biggest fear was making the balls look realistic.

    This is spectacular. How did you make all those blocks to match a picture?

    You did a marvelous job. Love the sports theme and the "boy" colors. He will love this quilt for years.
