Baby boy quilt

I made this little quilt recently for friends of ours who are having their first child in August. 

I’ve made a lot of quilts lately entirely (or almost entirely) out of 2 1/2” squares of fabric.  I have a lot of fabrics and the smaller the squares, the more I can use – I love that scrappy look.  I just realized that I haven’t blogged about some of the quilts I’ve made lately.  Jeeeez-o, I took a long vacation from the blog, huh?  Sorry, friends, I’ll catch you up soon.

Here is a picture of the back of the quilt.  It contains phrases such as: “it’s a boy”, “nine months”, “bouncing baby boy”, “a new life”, “our little miracle”, “boy meets world”, “we’re expecting”, etc..  So appropriate.

Baby quilts are my favorite.  I think I’ve mentioned this a time or two.  Especially when a person has limited room to sew and quilt (think kitchen table) the smaller sizes are so doable.
