Baby Quilt and Doll Quilt made for Helen
Sewn by Mhairi with Lallyquilters contributions
March 2001
Here is the baby quilt. I used fabrics sent to me by you all with a pink which I bought to make 9-patches. There were also several blocks made by various ladies in place of 9-patches. The border fabrics are a teal and a lavender dragonfly print. They are the same print, different background colors. The back of the quilt is the lavender dragonfly print. I machine quilted it...I used 'Warm 'n Natural' batting because I thought it would be more breatheable and thinner/safer for a baby.
