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.

#2 – Twelve Quilts of Christmas

Oh, what fun it is to . . . think of the beach, warm water and sailing on such cold winter days. Baby Quilt #2 for the Twelve Quilts of Christmas is named Sailing. The blue, green and plaid colors against white reminded me of being on a boat with the wind blowing.

This block pattern is named Pinwheel.  They are so much fun to make and create a lively look. Not only will your sweet baby stay warm wrapped up in this quilt but the design lends itself to an attractive wall hanging.  Also consider these other possibilities: a guest book for a baby shower!  Or, a bath mat (aka knee saver)!  Fold it up a couple times, place under your knees when leaning over the tub to wash up your toddler.

Alijack Baby Quilts are thirty-six inches square and made with 100% cotton batting and fabric. The back plaid is a wonderfully soft seersucker that also has a grey stripe running in it.

Til next time!

The Twelve Quilts of Christmas!

Dear Readers,

I am so excited!!!  I’m counting down the days until Christmas with a quilt a day.  Each day until Christmas I’ll post a new quilt. Making these quilts has been so much fun.  As you check back to view the photos you’ll get an idea of the many different patterns that make charming baby quilts. Plus, you’ll get lots of color ideas for your nursery.

This baby quilt is named Candy Land from my Alijack Baby Quilt Collection.  Alijack baby quilts are thirty-six inches square – just the right size to bundle up a newborn or drape over a car seat – to keep your little one toasty warm.  And . . . as baby grows,  the colorful pink, green and yellow “balls” pattern will make this a fun play and learn mat.
