Baby Jungle Fab...


Wow, Scott's quilt is absolutely awesome. I really like how it turned out -- so uber-stylish and contemporary! This baby's first words are going to be WOW, I love my quilt! I love the backing as I had mentioned in my early post about this quilt. For those that follow my facebook page this quilt is old news I know. For those that don't there has been tons of commentary on my page posts about this quilt... tons; it seems everyone really likes this quilt. Scott was kind enough to share the pattern source during all the chat so I thought I would share it also. It is by Better Homes & Gardens and can be found here it's called "Simple Squares & Bars. So far a few FB fans want to try it in hand-dyeds -- oh, I think that sounds too good or being the monochromatic junkie that I am, I was thinking about doing one in shades of gray. Okay.... I say that but, really I have "penned" it to my list of quilts I want to make. Yes, pen, so much closer to being started then pencil - LOL! One day I'll share with you my "list" -- wondering if there is enough lifetime?
Anyway, off to start the binding on this great quilt!

Baby Quilt meets Jungle Fab!

Here's what's going on the frame next...


This beautiful baby quilt was pieced by Scott in Ohio. The backing is the most adorable Jungle Animal print -- one of the cutest that I have seen in a while -- it is "Safari So Good" by P and B Textiles! I had to piece the backing and match up the pattern -- here is the result


Quilting pics will follow tomorrow -- I plan on ruler work with multi-directional lines in each block of the quilt. Hope it looks as good on the quilt as it does in my head!
