    Default Back fabric
    I am trying to decide what kind of fabric I want for the back of this 3 fishes baby quilt. I can't decide if I want a pattern with fishes or something else. Not sure what. I would love to hear your ideas.[ATTACH=CONFIG]407419[/ATTACH]

    very cute quilt! if its for a boy i would probably use a soft cuddly light/medium blue or aqua flannel, if it's for a girl probaby a soft buttery yellow...i love using good quality soft flannels for kids quilts. i also use alot of minkie's...depends on how warm i want it- or how soft/cuddly....a fishy print would also be very cute.

    I just realized neither of those is probably applicable to a baby quilt...
    Ok, try this...baby fishies:

    I love Teeler's fleece baby fish fabric. So cute for boy or girl! At first thought would be nice to be flannel, then saw it was fleece. Perfect!

    That is a charming quilt. Whatever you put on the back will finish it off wonderfully.

    It's a very cute quilt - fishy print or light yellow would be good for any boy or girl!
