I just finished this quilt for the neighbor's sweet little girl who will be a year old next month. I added the strips to the sides of the faces to make the blocks 9 inches. I did stitch in the ditch quilting, and freemotion outlined the faces.

I hope it becomes her favorite "drag around" blankie!

I just LOVE this quilt! I've admired those fabrics for quite a while, but didn't have any babies that needed quilts. Sadie will love this--so colorful and fun! Well done!

twistedstitcher 05-15-2008 08:08 PM

Thanks Izy! There's no pattern per se, I just kinda threw it together. :)

Thanks Harmony! I saw the panels and loved them, wasn't sure what I was going to do with them when I bought them. And I still have some left for another quilt sometime.

twistedstitcher 05-16-2008 07:08 AM

Thanks for all the kind words everyone! Kinkajou, the faces are cut from a pre-printed panel called Peek-A-Boo Baby by Amy Bradley. I just cut them out and added the strips to the sides to make them 9" blocks.

That is the cutest baby quilt that I have ever sceen. I love your choice of colors. You did a wonderful job on it.

Cordelia 05-16-2008 04:14 PM

I love it! It's bold and I hope the baby loves it too!

I never had such a fine blanket when I was little. But all babies should have two or three of them.

I just had a regular old blanket that my mom said she had to cut in half and I apparently slept with it and carried it around with me.

When she tried to wash it, she said I made a fuss. So, she had to cut it in half so I would always have half and she could wash the other half.

I don't remember this, of course. :mrgreen:

It's funny though, my mom back when I was eight crocheted a bold turquois and orange Navajo Indian blanket pattern with lots of fringes. She used to keep that blanket on our family room couch.

But, after a while she got tired of it and I kept it in my room. I've had that blanket for the last 25 years and sleep with it every night.

I love this quilt so much I'm desperately searching for the fabric. I've tried fabric.com, hancocksofpaducah, and a google search. Most places are now stocking her intergalactic line now. Any ideas?

HELP!! :shock:
