THE ZOO QUILT

All three of my daughters and their friends are well beyond the baby years, but I still end up now and again making a baby quilt for one of my or their co-workers or one of my daughters suddenly needs a baby quilt for some one.  My supply has been depleted over the last couple years so it was time to make a couple and set them away for Just In Case situations.  
I purchased this fabric some time ago.  It is a Moda called  Savannah.  Along with the panels I bought the fat quarter brick of fabrics that go with them. 
I put together 15 of these 10.5 inch blocks.
And 10 of these blocks that were 8 by 10.5 inches.  Some of these blocks had two animals and others like this one three.  
They are just too cute.  
It didn't take long to get a good start on finishing the quilt top.  
And the top is finished.  It will go off to the quilter as soon as I get the back sewn together.

    Your choice of border fabrics is spot on.

    Very cute baby quilt. I recognize the designer as Gingiber--my daughter just gave me an embroidery kit by the same designer.

    It's such a sweet quilt. I think I have this fabric panel stashed away somewhere in my sewing room. I tend to let them sit for a while.

    Eep -- I'm such a fan of Gingiber's fabric designs. Your work with Savannah is just beautiful. I have panels of Gingiber's Merrily that I need to sew into Christmas quilts. (Apparently, that won't be happening for Christmas 2018!)
