Aww, very cute! My brother would love to have that for my nephew. We just celebrated my nephew's first birthday, it was pirate themed.

Beautiful quilt and quilting.

very nice

That is the one that was MIA. Lovingizabella will post a picture tonight with her adn her baby in it. SO glad she has it now. I bought that fabric on ebay so have no idea where they found it. Maybe we can googel pirate fabrics and see. Would love to make anotehr one for my GS who is a Granbury Pirate on teh Football, basketball and track team. Thanks for the comments. I don't usually post pictures, but this is fun. I felt like too many out there so much prettier but we are all quilters at different levels. I will pop in later to see Izabella and APril.

It is even more stunning in person! I have been a lover of pirate/nautical theme forever. Hubby has to get home to take a picture for me...I can take one of Ms Izzy with it though...hang on BRB

ok what is minky on the back ?

Minky is a very, very soft and wonderful material!

Where does one find it ? Colors , patterns, florals , stripes ?? or plain like muslin ? thank you

I can get it at a local quilt shop. It comes in solid colors,,(very soft colors) but different textures. I like to use it for baby quilts, but it is harder to quilt than regular cotton.

More thanks ! But if it is harder to quilt than regular cotton, then we are using it because it is so soft for a baby ?

I know a lady that would love this quilt! Very nice.

Very very nice!

Very nice.

Yes! I use it because it's sooooo soft and cuddly.

I was brousing, looking for more pirate fabric , and lo and behold, me maties, I found the site. It is jandofabrics.com. They have a whole line of pirate fabric and these are there too. I saw a few of you asking where to find it. "X" marks the spot. LOL
