Frolicking Foxes - A Finished Quilt

I love making baby quilts, it has to be my favorite type of sewing! It gives me an opportunity to try out new things and color pallets - with out committing to a full bed quilt. That and I know they will go to a good home and get to wrap a little bundle of joy in love. A quilt has become my go to gift to welcome little ones into our family and circle of friends. 

I enjoyed working with the muted colors in this quilt. I stuck with a simpler patter, the disappearing nine patch, to let the fabric shine. I just love the foxes poking out, adds a little whimsy. For the back I stepped outside my norm and tried using minky, a soft snuggle fabric. It went rather well, lots of pins in basting. I have a feeling it may become my go to backing choice for baby quilts!
