I have been busy the past few weeks. A friend at our church is having a baby and her shower was today. I was planning to do a “generic” baby boy quilt with trucks and planes (fabric from my stash) and then I found out that they were doing tropical fish in the nursery. I got to buy fabric! I had the accent fabrics already, it was a perfect match.
Here is a close-up of the wonderful fish fabric.
This is the back. It got a little larger than I planned and I ended up having to piece the back.
I had also gotten a book out at the library about stuffed animals made with fleece. I wanted to make a “quilted” turtle for the baby. I adapted the pattern a little to make it easier with the quilted fabric. I added a music box inside. I think I have a new fun thing to send with a baby quilt now. The owl will be given as a Christmas present.
I have also been working on new iPad designs for our new website.
