I would match the two pieces, make a quilt out of them and call it reversible. A small child would love either side and could change off. I wouldn't cut either one up into squares. A thin batting inside would increase its hug value.

I made a baby quilt out of that duck fabric and it really turned out pretty

The quilt from the Kids site is very cute, go for it.

Oh those ducky's are cute. I'd hate to cut them up too but I can see doing them like suggested with 4 patch in between a block of ducky print. Good luck.

How about Attic Windows for the duck fabric?

I'm working on a quilt with that ducky fabric that I bought from Avalon Blooms cut as kaleidoscopes. My intention was for it to look like ducks in a pond with the surrounding yellow fabric depicting the beach (I know - I think way too much!)

I'll back it with yellow minkee and not use any batting.

Don't look too closely -- it's my first attempt at applique. Boy, do I ever learn things the hard way!

I am for fussy cutting ....pick out a place you like....you would have to scrap some of it. How much do you have? It would always make a very cute back. I am not sure about the fleece.

Are they close in size? Could you sew the two RST leaving a small opening for turning and tie them? You may not even have to use batting if the duck fabric is heavy. Just an idea. Good Luck.

I have that same fabric. Fell in love with it when I saw it. I used the Warm Wishes pattern and then did the final outside border with it and backed it in yellow flannel.
