« Cabin fever | Main | Molly's 1st softie »
for an early baby.
Inspired by Jane's hamster quilt ( that has to be the luckiest hamster in the world ).
Measuring 18 x 26", and using whatever fabrics were closest, it only took a couple of hours to do.
Just strips of fabric, hastily sewn together, and a bit of ribbon and lace here and there.
It's not perfect,
It's certainly not straight.
But, it's ready to take to a baby who decided to arrive a couple of weeks early.
Thank you for the inspiration Hugo.

Love it! I have a fear of quilting, but I think if I tried something smaller like this I might get over it. I mean, it's so adorable!
