Today's Design Wall

This is the center to a small quilt for a little girl.  I don't even know this little girl.  I have never seen this little girl, not even in a picture.

But...this little girl's dad is doing a favor for my son.  So...as a thank you from my son I am making this little girl a quilt.  I also made a quilt for her for my son to give as a baby gift.  I will talk about that shortly.

This is a quilt that I saw in an Australian quilting magazine that I am making into a sort of "I Spy" type of quilt.  I have included fabrics with the types of things that a small child of 12 to 18 months would be learning to recognize.  It is also a sort of scrappy quilt as well since much of the fabric I have used here had been used in a previous quilt.  (Keep reading to find out more.)

Before this little girl came into the world my son asked me to make a baby quilt as a new baby gift for her and her parents.

Above is the quilt I made as a baby gift.  Some of the left over fabric from this quilt are in the "I Spy" quilt at the start of this post.

I have tried to tie the two together just a little.  I wonder if they will notice.

Enjoy!

Have a super great sewing day!
