Giraffes Baby Quilt finished!

My One Monthly Goal for April was to finish this baby quilt by the end of the month. I didn't meet that goal, but I did manage to finish the quilt before the baby was born!


Giraffes in a Row
pattern by Lorna of Sew Fresh Quilts
37" x 45"
The quilting on the giraffes is all stitch-in-the-ditch, and I did a loose stippling in the background areas.

Here is another view of the adorable flannel print that was used on the back. That fabric may be my favorite thing about this quilt!



I'm already planning to make another version of this quilt, maybe using prints instead of solids.

  7. I've made several of Lorna's patterns including this one. Yours is adorable! Finishing in time for baby was more important than checking off a list for sure. Nice, timely finish!
