This quilt now lives in Denmark with my adorable little nephew, Ethan.  He is only 6 weeks old, and let me tell you, he’s a doll!!

It had been in the works for awhile, but my sister-in-law reads my blog so I had to keep it hush hush!

It was made from 2 charm packs from the Arcadia line by Moda.  I sashed it with a linen/cotton blend and stipple quilted it.  This time I didn’t prewash any of the fabrics, hoping that it would get that lovely crinkly look.  It worked so well and I loved the way it looked when I took it out of the dryer.  I had so much fun making it knowing that it would be something that little Ethan would have forever.

I also made a quilt for my dear friend’s adorable baby, Ulysses.  Unfortunately I totally forgot to take pictures!  My friend posted this picture though, which will at least give you an idea.  It was so fun to make two totally different baby boy quilts!  I think that each one suits the mommy as well as the baby boy.

    This is great, he will love it as he grows up, it’s not so babyish that he’ll want to hide it as he gets bigger!
