Fast forward a few months and I took up quilting and decided to make her a toddler quilt for a veeeery late birthday present and an early Christmas present. I had some fun scraps and thought I'd try piecing them together into workable squares. And then I found out after finishing the quilt that there's a name for this.
*Disclaimer: it was dark and raining and I had a dying camera. These pictures are terrible.
But I finally did get a free motion foot and tried out some crazy squigglies on this and had such fun. My toddler did exactly what I hoped Renee would when she saw the quilt: crawled on it and picked out all of the animals, fruits, plants, and nursery rhymes on the quilt. It's backed in denim with one simple stripe of random girly fabrics.
