creation of a baby quilt

good thing i started on this today as my cousin went into labour this morning! we already know she's having a boy so just awaiting the *he's here* phone call.

i decided to do a double Irish Chain for this baby quilt. i've never done one of this pattern before. the green safari fabric i bought an embarrassing 9yrs ago(how sad is that? i even bought some in blue with the idea of making A and J each pajama's. instead i got 3 baby quilts out of the blue and this one out of the green. you can see 2 of the blue quilts in my slide to the left)





this afternoon i got the strips cut, sewn together and laid the block out. i should be able to sew them together tonight than start on the second block that completes the chain
