This is my newest granddaughter, my little angel, Josie. Since I didn't finish her quilt before she was born, I thought I better finish it and take it home with me for Thanksgiving. After all, it is a lot colder in Missouri than it is here in Texas and she just might need this to keep her warm. Of course, it is quite a bit bigger than a typical baby quilt. It's 54" x 68". She will get swallowed up in it.
I used the "Funny Babies" quilt panel I found at Quilting Cousins Quilt Shop in Clifton, Texas, added a checkerboard sashing around the panels and then designed a pieced rick rack border. (It really isn't crooked like the picture makes it look like!)
I used a pink minkee backing that is sooo soft and cuddly. She will just love this when she gets a little older. I hope her momma lets her use it and not "save" it. Nana can make her another one if she wears it out!
