I love how this little quilt has turned out! The simplicity of the design really allows the fabrics and the colors to shine. I adore this eclectic mix of fabrics, both in terms of the prints as well as the textures of the base cloth. This quilt is an "I-Spy" of fabric as well as a modern "I-Spy" of creatures, animals, fruits, cars, flowers, which can serve as a great opportunity for storytelling with children.

The quilting - closely spaced vertical lines - adds texture without detracting anything from the design and the fabrics. A minimal look but by no means a quick process.

For the back of the quilt I have used a much hoarded piece of fabric from Lu Summers - Summersville Collection. It is perfect for the back of this baby quilt. For the binding I have used a narrow green/white stripe (from the Ella's Basics range by Ella Blue).
