I Spy Baby Quilt


"This was a fun baby quilt to make. It involves raw edge applique using super beginner free motion quilting - your chance to give it a try! Use up scraps from your favorite printed fabrics and give a baby quilt that will keep the child entertained for years. My sister's son is nearly 5 and he loves playing eye spy on his little sister's quilt and talking about all the different images on the quilt. This is a great gift for a baby or a young child - I used high loft batting to make mine more play mat like so it could be used on the floor too."
