We have been working a lot with patches lately! Well, you know I always do, but together with my trainee Nadja we have made a bunch of peek a boo baby quilts during the last month. We only used what I had on my shelves, a mix of new and fleamarket fabrics. It was a creative challenge to find the right fabrics for each quilt, when I had decided not to order any new fabrics for the quilts, but a very fun challenge it was, and I did have enough to choose from and my shelves are not empty yet... Here is one of our favourite quilts, a very springy one that is now available in my shop!
Under the flaps you will find some appliqued pictures to peek at together with the baby. A kitty...
A piggy...
And a doggy dog!
For the backing I found a really nice baby blue gingham sheet.
One more patchy thing before I wish you all a happy weekend! A brand new print of a little elephant going off on an adventure in her home made hot air balloon! It's available in the shop.
Happy weekend everyone! I am enjoying the silent early hours myself, when the rest of the house is still sleeping!
wow is fantastic!! bellissimo! Paola - Italy

What a wonderful idea for a baby quilt! And an amazing inspiration to use scraps of fabric. I can just picture a little one playing with the peek-a-boo flaps. The piggy is so cute! :-)
