Nature's Sketchbook - With Bears!
I went to a baby shower yesterday, which means today I can share the first of the three baby quilts I am making this fall ! This quilt was made with a layer cake of Nature's Sketchbook by Elena Amo - the soft florals and mushrooms fit the mama's vibe perfectly. I supplemented this with a few animal prints leftover from the Twilight Star quilt I made last year that belongs to this baby's cousin. I hope they don't mind that their quilts overlap a little bit! I adapted the Scattered Squares pattern by Missouri Star Company to be baby sized - I like how this pattern moves a lot but the fabric is still the star. The back of the quilt is a sweet teddy bear print to give it a "baby" feel and the binding is one of the brown prints from the line. I quilted it myself in a meander pattern. Now we just have to wait for baby to arrive to see if they like it!
