Ps 150

My neighbors just announced that they're having a boy. These neighbors are great neighbors and even better friends. They're a bit younger than us and this is their first baby. I want to shower them with some cute handmade items and I know the mother said that they'll do a turtle theme. So, I was wondering if any of you could recommend some cute turtle themed patterns, for quilting, knitting and/or crocheting?

think Keepsake Quilting has a baby quilt in their catalog with a turtle theme.

you could do applique by typing in turtles, and make them into appliques.
i don't remember if it's Mccalls or Simplicity, but they have a pattern for a turtle quilt in the shape of a turtle.
Turtle fabric receiving blankets. painted furniture such as lamps with turtles on the shade or fabric . I used to paint
letters and furniture at the flea mkt with themes on ceramic pigs and furniture. so a toybox with turtles ext.

While trying to clean out my quilting magazines, I remember there was a cute 3D turtle pattern but can't find it anywhere, even online. Here are some ideas on Google Images:

I ordered the Turtles, Turtles pattern by Connie Spurlock and Teri Chandler. See post and pic by tucsonquilter on 4/28. I love this pattern and can't wait to get started. It could be done in brights for a baby quilt.

Drunkard's Path blocks in a different arrangement with the head appliquéd on make a turtle design. I think it was popular in the 1930's ?
