The Very Hungry Caterpillar book by Eric Carle was one of my childrens favourite stories when they were young, and I recently used the fabrics to make a baby quilt.
For the quilting, I used the Serpentine stitch as it made me think of a caterpillar crawling over the quilt:)
And a lime binding to finish it all off - these frogs really are very cute.
Still not convinced the white background was the best choice for a baby quilt but I couldn't decide on an alternative - anyway, it does look nice and fresh!
It is difficult being caught between practicality and a design decision! White can be tricky to clean! The red, green and blue crosses are a great contrast to the printed fabric you used!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute Kirsten! We have used a few white background baby quilts and they've survived surprisingly well ;o) Thank you for participating in the 2016 FAL, on behalf of the global FAL hosts :o)
