Two Babies on Almost the Same Day!

 So I usually make art quilts. but I have to tell you that I love to make baby quilts as well. There's something so delightful about seeing a baby playing on a quilt I made. I never use a pattern. I pretty much make it up as I go along. 

Of course, being me, I also  tend to wait until the last minute to pull them together (although I try to have them done by the time the baby is born). Well this year all that careful planning went out the window because there were two babies who needed a quilt. Both due in April. 

And, as it turns out, both born within a day of each other. One is the son of my son's best friend. And the other is the son of my nephew. Both are adorable. (The boys, not my quilts - although I think the quilts are pretty cute too.)

I make large baby quilts. I want them to be used for many years. So since I had two to do at the same time I chose a similar color palette and a pretty simple design. These are just for fun. I like 'em.






I should be better at documenting my quilts.
