Dr Seuss for New Baby

It is time for a great baby quilt.  My sister-in-law, who passed last fall, would have had her first grand child this fall.  So it was time for a cute baby quilt.  Baby Momma wanted Dr. Seusss, which meant I needed to get shopping on line, since none could be found locally.

Here was my pick, it’s Cat In The Hat.  The fat quarter bundle came with a fabric panel.  I had never used one before, so I put it aside, while I put the top together.  This is my layout before I added the stripping.

We have a top together.  It was very quick to put together.

Here is the back.  I used the panel and added fabric to the sides, top and bottom.  I was thrilled with how I got the top and bottom even and the sides even.  It was by luck.

This is the final quilt.  But wait there is more.

I took the leftover fabric and used an old pattern, Squiggles QAL Blocks.  Now I have another quilt for Jack’s Basket

 

Just enough fabric to finish the back.

Now I need to figure out how to make a few tag blankets and toys with my Sister-In-Laws shirts.

I’m linking up with Meadow Mist and her Favorite Finish monthly link up.

Just a few more days until

Don’t miss it, there will be a great giveaway.
