a baby quilt

Time for some sewing for baby!  I went a little crazy a few weeks ago ordering fabrics.  I couldn't resist this color palette... "Gone Fishin'" from the Storyboek collection for Birch Fabrics (plus a few others):

 Turns out I bought enough fabric for about 2 king size quilts.  So one smaller-than-crib-size blankey is a good start, right?  Here are some in-progress shots, because I happen to love the look of the inside of a quilt!
 (side 2- pressing)

(side 1 - putting the layers together)
 
 (attaching the binding)

Finished! Don't get too excited, this didn't happen all in one day. :)

Now the rocking chair is ready to go!

Sooo happy for you! The quilt is beautiful and the wall hanging too! What a lucky little boy, with such a creative mom!
