Babies on Board

Baby  Season
After all of those weddings last summer, 
it was inevitable.....

Boys on Board
This first one is a great Moda Bake Shop quilt. 
It's called Simply Woven.  The pattern is for 2 jelly rolls. 

I used one jelly roll and ended up with a nice 48" x 60". 
You need to be on your toes and not distracted 
while cutting and piecing. 
Yes, it's simple but watch closely.  Easy to get off track.  
I'd totally make it again. 

Red minky for the back.  
Made a couple of burp rags with leftover scraps. 


Slightly, and I mean slightly, 
embellished some inexpensive IKEA bibs.


Next baby boy on board.......
Mom chose the Bizzy Kid pattern from Cluck Cluck Sew.

She wanted blues and browns.  
Um.....the greens kind of took over.  

 

Didn't see that coming until it was too late.  
I love the illustrations and easy directions 
of the Bizzy Kid pattern.  




 And now we approach spring weddings again........

    Beautiful quilts and accessories. We are expecting our first grandchild in two months so I need to get going on his quilt.

    Cute, cute. I agree...the babies are popping out all over the place which reminds me that I need to get the Lorax one quilted and bound. That baby is due in about a month.

    Thanks for showing off some boy quilts--they can be so boring compared to girl quilts. Your quilts are so far from being boring...love them both!
