Thank you all SO much for your sweet comments on my last post. You're all so kind!
This time, I wanted to show you a quilt I made for Bo, before he was born (of course BEFORE he was born - I haven't yet found the time for ANY crafting SINCE).
One of the first baby items we bought was a 'mini-cot'. We wanted something for the baby to sleep in, in our bedroom, for the first few months. But we weren't keen on any of the moses baskets or cribs we'd seen around. They were all either really stylish but WAY too expensive, or a reasonable price but WAY too flouncy/pastely/twee for our tastes. Then we saw this 'mini-cot' on Kiddicare. It was exactly what we'd had in mind - and it was a sensible price!
So then I had to make a quilt to go inside it. Of course, it's only been used for decorative purposes (advise is to definitely NOT use quilts for babies), but I had to make one just the same!
And, here it is.....
And here are some photos of our bedroom (there's a whole post on it here) - I made Bo's quilt to match, of course.....
Next time, I think I might do a 'show-and-tell' of the quilt I made for Bo's BIG cot..... because a baby can never have too many (purely decorative) quilts!!!
Wishing you all a happy (and sunny) weekend.....
