Just Couldn't Cut This Fabric.
 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]514685[/ATTACH]. My ex DIL is having a baby and I wanted to make her a baby quilt. We have a wonderful relationship due to her being Camden's mommy. I had a pattern in mind but then found I just couldn't cut the fabric. It was just too cute!!! So decided to square it up and treated it like a panel. I wanted pink and black zebra stripe but couldn't find a pink that it played nice with so used black and white zebra print. I hope she'll be happy with it. Stitching down the backside of the binding now so should have it ready to send tomorrow.

love it. good decision ;-)

very cute, nicely done

Aw, adorable!

great idea...not to cut it. sometimes we just can't

Very cute!!

Sometimes a whole cloth quilt is the best with some fabrics. Great idea, still made by you and will be well loved.

I see nothing wrong with whole cloths and panels. Yours is great! I have always tried to keep a good relationship with my ex DIL because of the girls. Besides the problems were between the couple not me and the kids. Love your quilt and so will she.

Really cute fabric! Good idea to not cut. Great job!

Great quilt. I'm sure she will love it.

Adorable print and I agree with your idea not to cut it. Very cute quilt and sure to be loved.

Well said. I agree.

Very cute quilt.

i see why you couldn't cut it -- you did great, they will love it!

she will be very happy to get that nice quilt.

sure to be loved. Some fabrics need to be uncut.

That is a cute fabric. I come across fabrics that I don't want to cut so I make the center square in Warm Wishes and cut the blocks 8.5" instead. BQ is also a good pattern that uses a larger square blocks. I am certain the child is going to enjoy growing up with this quilt.

I would have done the same thing. Great job.

Very cute and can see why you couldn't cut it. I have done that before and just cut into very large pieces with a sashing. Double bed size though.

I would have done the same thing! It's cute as is!!

Very, very ccute. Love the print.

Adorable quilt. I had some oriental fabric that I couldn't bear to cut once upon a time. Made a beautiful (to me) whole cloth quilt.

You're right, sometimes some fabrics are too pretty to cut. Great baby quilt.

It looks cute!

It is such cute fabric.

very nice job!!!

Nicely done

Turned out great!

Looks great...love it...

Cute quilt.

I think it is wonderful that you and your ex- DIL are still on good terms.
