More Baby Quilts -

This post is a continuation of the Lil Bear Quilts Mission started by Mary Johnson.  You can read more about Mary's contributions here on her blog  HeartStrings Quilt Project

These are 2 more tops made by other quilters and sent to me for finishing and donating.  These tops were so sweet, I felt the urge to add borders and make them baby quilt/ car seat / stroller  size.

This first lil quilt was a 16-patch made and donated by Karen O'.  Lovely colors of aqua and orange prints.


I dug in the stash to find a perfect aqua fabric for the border and some black with tiny white dots for a separating border, bringing this lil quilt to 33 inches square.  I also had a perfect gray print for the backing and black & white plaid for binding.  I free motion quilted diagonal crossing orange peels with an arc ruler and silver Omni thread.  Yes, I had a delightful time with this one.  Thank you, Karen, O'.



This lil quilt top was donated by N. Lindsey. It was so cute, I just had to enlarge this one also.  I added an orange inner border and this black swirly print for the outer border. I free motion quilted it allover with overlapping circles to mimic the border print, a solid black for the binding and silver Omni thread.  It finishes 34 x 32.  Also, thank you, N. Lindsey.



Again, I had an appropriate backing ........ Gotta love having a stash
