Well, I finally feel like I've made progress with this quilt! It seems like it has gone really slowly, but I guess since I had to do embroidery, then applique...then piecing...and try to figure out what I wanted to do as I went along...anyway I did get some of the blocks sewn together today. DH was happy, but not as excited as I felt he should be, so I'm sharing with ya'll instead.

I haven't sewn down the "Our Little Boy" applique banner for the top yet..doing that now. I think I will do a 1" border with the peach, then a 3" outer border with the frogs, then bind with the red. What do ya'll think?

Isn't that frog fabric the cutest??? I couldn't believe I found it..ran across it the other day and ordered it from Thousands of Bolts. It is just darling!

Here are the border/binding options along with the froggie fabric for the border and back.

Inner border- peach? binding- red?

This will be a 3" border on the front and will also be the backing

That is soooo cute!!!

Very very very adorable!! I love it all. I think the frog fabric is great, and it's fun to see the DJ blocks in there. What I like most about that is that that's a special feature that only "those in the know" would really understand!!

Holy Moly! This is adorable. I love the diaper size and the face on the baby is too funny! What a wonderful quilt.

Can't wait to see the peach border and of course the banner!

Wow, Patti, when you get done, your gonna have to post the Little Girl Quilt and The Little Boy Quilt together! I love that frog fabric...it's perfect.
You 'wing' it, beautifully :wink:

Oh My Gosh!!! This is just the most darling boy quilt! I love it!

Q/C...the Little Girl is long gone...to her new home. I told my friend that my one rock solid requirement for her to get them for the price I quoted her was that I get to have a pic of the new baby and the quilt together. The girl's birthday is the 15th of this month and "Mom" is a stickler for adhering to not getting gifts too early...so I'll be getting a pic of that one soon in its new home.
