Very nice quilt!!
|
I think it is older full for any age. Love your fabric.
|
The elephants are soooo cute!
|
love it...I think it would make a great child's quilt..
|
I vote to put minky on the back and let a child love it to pieces. I'vestopped making 'baby'quilts per se. I feel they grow out of them too fast. I'd rather the quilts be something they grow into as opposed to grow out of in a couple of years.
|
I think it's gorgeous. I just love the fabric.
|
It is gorgeous. Either way it will be awesome.
|
It's adorable. My daughters and all their friends would love LOVE it for their babies. Truly I may steal your idea if you wouldn't mind!

Beautiful quilt, but I don't think it's for a baby. I love the colors. Great job.
|
that is a really cute quilt
|
Wow! I love it. How about a compromise - wall hanging in child's room until they are old enough to use and take care of it. :)
|
IMHO, if it's made of flannel I would give it to a baby. If it's made of polished cotton, I would hang it in my diningroom.
You've created a beautiful, elegant quilt. Way to go! |
What a beautiful quilt! Probably not good for a baby, but would make a lovely wallhanging in baby's or young person's room/area.
|
stunning!!
|
I love this quilt! The fabric is wonderful and I truly love what you did with the elephants; facing each other. This is suitable for a child, or wall hanging or whatever the lucky recipient decides to do with it!
|
This quilt is sooooooo awesomeeeeee. Add a few borders and it will make a lovely throw for some lucky person or it will be an awesome wall hanging or baby blanket.
|
It doesn't really look like a traditional baby quilt, but so many new mothers today are going with non-traditional themes. That being said, I love this quilt! I collect elephants and I love the texture, colors, and soothing feelings this evokes. Great job!
|
I love your elephants! It all looks very regal to me!
|
Would be great for either one. Nice job!
|
I agree your quilt is very beautiful and I am thinking more for an older child.
|
This is great. This would be fantasic as a child or baby quilt .
|
Very cool!. Stunning fabrics....brilliant elephants - what a great design. Sure it would make a great wallhanging...but I'm all for quilts to wrap people in:). The minkee would make it stunning and cuddly. Look forward to seeing the end result...and your next masterpiece.
|
What a GREAT quilt!!! Any child would be delighted to sleep with it, haul it around and just generally love it!
|
Adorable. Nice for a child, but I'd like it too! :thumbup:
|
Very nice! colors and fabrics! Congratulations!

The elephants are adorable. I think it's a great baby quilt! :)
|
Looks like a quilt to me! I bet it could still be wall hanging piece in 20 years if needed or wanted!
|
I vote for wall hanging. I have just the place! It is terrific.
|
What do you mean by fussy? that word means ribbons and lace or ruffels for a girl. You did a great job.I like your elephants,think they are cute.
|
That is SO pretty!!!!!
|
Your quilt is wonderful.
|
Why not a wallhanging in a baby's room? It is beautiful and would be more likely to stay that way and be enjoyed for years (good at all ages) rather than being spit up, etc! on and dragged around the floor.

It will be fine to start out as a Baby quilt, since Babies grow so fast. Very pretty quilt.

I think it would be a good toddler (1-2 years old) quilt...baby quilts get washed too often.

Hi-I have recently designed this baby quilt from scratch -first time!!..BUT, I also added embroidery from my new Janome to the panels, which i thought was OK. I had a few teething problems along the way , unpicked a quite a few seams, got a headache but redid it lol. Anyway I have not sandwiched it yet as I am undecided about backing, I have some lovely blue and white minky fabric which would look pretty on the back for a child, its so lovelya nd warm, but if I decide its going to be a wallhanging the Minky is a bit of a waste, as I could just back it with white or blue, as it wont bee seen.
I cant decide if this quilt would look too fussy for a childs quilt or not? What do you think? I have put in a few pics below. Would love to know..I know the elephants are a bit crazy- they are going to be appliqued on today..the fabric is Free Spirit Karavan but I fell in love with it :D [ATTACH=CONFIG]368714[/ATTACH] |
To Irishphoenix; Piepatch said it so well. It's a beautiful quilt and a child would definitely love it! Don't waste it on a wall where no one can touch or love on it!:)

Lovely quilt! I can see it as a baby's quilt, so the minky would be a nice touch.
|
Wow! What a really nice quilt. I too would prefer to use it as a child's quilt. A person can have only so many wall hangings. And this is something that would be used, loved and cherished a long time.
|
What about washing all that lovely embroidery, over and over and over again... I may consider wall hanging. It is beautiful.
