I sewed them together and basted,
then I traced around a frying pan lid, a casserole lid, and a cereal bowl
and got busy quilting
in no time I had it quilted and bound and into the washer it went
The binding is squared elements by Art Gallery. I thought the little squares were a perfect fit
Another fun little quilt to add to the pile in the nursery.
I'm thinking now might be a good time to give my new daughter in law a tour of that nursery....... : )
