Snuggle Bubbles
Background
I liked the quilt when I saw it at Village Quilts in Lethbridge in June 2011. Especially the minky fabric used in the pinwheels. So I bought it figuring someone we knew would have a baby (boy) sooner or later. There were a few other quilts bought that year, but until this year, there hadn't been any need to finish this one.
Kevin and Stephanie were expecting a baby in July 2013, so Barbara started the quilt on March 5, 2013. She wanted to have it done so I could take it with me when I went for my annual visit to Alberta. The top was finished on April 8th, and it was completed April 12th. It had a fannel backing fabric, some polyester batting, and was machine quilted by Barbara.
Here it is December and I'm finally letting you know that Stephanie and Kevin (mostly Kevin I think) chose this quilt over the Jungle Baby quilt.
Backing
A look at the backing fabric against an even closer view of the fabrics in the pinwheels. Nice how the backing carries over some of the colour scheme from the front.
A full shot of the quilt a close-up of the fabrics & pinwheels, and a photo of Mason, Grandma and the quilt together are also available.
