Two down, four to go

I don't know why I wait until I'm overwhelmed with baby quilts. If I was smart I would have a few already done, ready to give away as the babies came. But I seem to work better pushed up against a dead line. Oh well. 

Here is Walker's quilt. 


The swirl quilting stitch is coming along nicely. It surprises me how much quicker it is than stitching in the ditch. It is also better coverage for a stronger quilt. 


The back ended up just one fabric, except the little red square in the corner. 

The Reds and golds are vibrant and cheerful. I like it better than I thought I would. That is always a happy thing. The fabric isn't necessarily child themed, but it turns out nicely.

I think it is amazing that such non-childish fabrics can look so perfectly sweet for a child. You have a gift.
