Baby Book Quilt...




LeeAnn is right...the stuff we see as children DOES influence us. Last summer I found my son's first book...a cloth baby book that had been much washed and was shredding a bit. I took out the binding seam and discovered it was one long piece of fabric with the images printed on it. I just cut them up and made some blocks not worrying about the goose's lost head or the stain on the dog block. It will be my New Year's at the beach quilting project!
