Quick quilt
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.
That's a great, especially for how long it took you! I love the embellishments.

It's beautiful. I am so in love with the fabrics (the pink paisley is delightful!). It only took you a few hours to make? Good golly, I would be fidding with it for weeks and would then give up out of sheer frustration. When I grow up, I wanna learn how to sew like you do! =)

So cute! And I think it's perfect! And that hamster quilt is really something amazing! Puts my dog quilt to MAJOR shame (but I guess not really since the dog loves it)!

Ahhh! I am looking at this quilt again, and didn't notice the first time the little bits of ribbon and laces...so darling! What a great addition to the quilt...provides the babe with a bit more for the senses...charming.
