May your every wish come true stargazing with your baby on this sturdy baby quilt.  I have done a lot of camping with babies and children and I can tell you from experience that it is always helpful to have an extra blanket.  As with the other Alijack quilts, The Happy Camper Baby Quilt is reversible.  This quilt was made to be used.

The dark red check flannel side is soft but won’t easily get dirty. The wool blend binding is double thick and hand sewn.  The colorful striped side is made with a heavy cotton.  I actually got the colors ideas from some holiday wrapping paper!

And even I added a couple of decorative “patches” just for fun.

#7 – Twelve Quilts of Christmas

Into the Woods

Christmas time is here. . .

Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share. . .

is what you’ll think of snuggling up your baby is this all flannel quilt.

I named it Into the Woods and made it with a mix of new and vintage fabrics. The colorful dots on the backing fabric is new and the dark green print, yellow check and binding material is vintage fabric.  They were special leftovers from some other projects years ago, waiting to come together into this quilt reminiscent of simpler times.

The muted tones in this quilt will blend into a homespun, eclectic, DIY type of nursery decor and can blend well with a muted yellow theme, also.

#5 – Twelve Quilts of Christmas

I didn’t think I would get this one posted today! It was one of those days that we all have and hope won’t occur on the Saturday before Christmas.  My sewing machine balked at every needle I owned and then on my way to get more needles, the windshield wipers quit working during a drizzling rain.  I make it back home just as the temperature is dropping and the rain is turning to ice.  I got the machine going again but when the quilt was done it was already dark so that meant not very great photos to share.

Still, I want you to see this lovely quilt. The cotton print had so many lovely colors I used a natural muslin to showcase it.  This quilt will complement many colors schemes. Plus, this giant pinwheel pattern is so fun, you may just want to hang it on the wall as art!

Did you notice I did not mention the name of this quilt?  With so much going on I just didn’t come up with one.  Would you like to help me give it a name?  I’d love to hear your suggestions!  Let’s make it a contest, shall we?  I’ll pick a name from your suggestions and give the person that suggested that name a coupon for $20 off one of my Alijack Quilts!

Until next time, Linder
