Baby and fabric and quilts, oh my!

Tis the Season for having Babies

So, currently, I have four friends who just had babies and another five who are soon to have theirs.  What does this mean? Sewing like crazy.  This weekend, I finished the first of five baby quilts for the babies who are coming. (One friend is having twin boys!)

 My sweet friend and I went to my favorite local fabric shop and she chose the colors and prints which she liked.  She wasn't drawn to the typical "girly colors.  Hence, we have navy, teal, white, and I added periwinkle later.


From our fabric outing, she also decided to use sea turtles as her theme.  So, I used the scraps from the front to  make the back and appliqued the creatures.
