Baby Quilt Sneak Peak

Posted in Quilting

  • Simplicity 2613
  • The Baby quilt
  • Toys

I’m visiting my friend Sammi and delivering the baby quilt this coming weekend. Here’s a sneak peak of the quilt, and a shot of the elephant I made out of the leftover material. It’s Simplicity 2613 again. I used each of the four colors for each piece, and the border fuzzy yellow fabric for the ear inserts. The scarf is made from the backing fabric with little pieces of selvage on the end—they made perfect fringe.

The quilt is in the wash right now; I’m having a bit of an issue getting the yellow chalk lines out that I used as a grid for quilting. One wash didn’t work, so if they’re still there, I guess I’ll just have to claim they were a design decision or something. At least they match the color scheme. I learned my lesson about using chalk in the future though, that’s for sure.

      Whales, alligators, elephants, giraffes, fish and turtles. I wish I could have cut it out to show more of their heads, but that was the last little scrap that I had of the fabric.
