Hello lovelies. I wanted to use up some scraps and make a baby quilt to donate to Project Linus at the same time. So I used squares and rectangles to create this quilt top. It measures 36" square and need to be at least 40" square (or up to 42" square), so I added a border to the top.

| Back of the quilt I used a Debbie Mumm print of Pirate sea animals that I have had for years! |
 |
| Arrrgh matey, can you spy a Pirate Shark, Pirate Pelican, Pirate Starfish, Pirate Sea Turtle, and a Pirate Octopus? Plus there's some Jolly Rogers, Captain's Wheels, Anchors and a Treasure Map? All should be fun for a little boy! |
While I just grabbed any blues in my scraps to try this pattern out (something I altered from a quilt I saw in a magazine), I think it would look much if I had chosen just the right blues. Well now I know I can make this in any colors and it will work out. A baby probably wouldn't care anyhow.
Pin It Now!
