Baby Quilts.

I love giving away quilts! To give something away that was handmade, and sewn with lots of love.

The next few post are quilts that I have made and then given away. I hope you can get some ideas from these quilts. I want to start posting the patterns I used, but I don't know how to upload them......yet! 

I made two of the quilt above for my cousin and second cousin.

They were born only a month apart.

   This is a close up so you can see the fabrics I used. I tied the quilt for a simple look.

I sewed a strip of the main fabric across the back of one of the quilts. I wanted to try something new. I like the look of both the plain back and the added strip. The strip down the back is very easy to add.

It is also nice if you are a little short on backing and need a few more inches.

 I should have started with this quilt, it was the first baby quilt I ever gave away. I gave it to my cousin Abigail.

She is three now, and I LOVE babysitting her!

I made another one of this quilt and gave it to a lady at church who was having her sixth child. She had a girl but these fabrics have enough blue and pink for a boy or girl. Dolls for the girls, toy soldiers for the boys.

I try to find fabrics that could go either way.
