Three More Baby Quilts

All three are for the grandchildren of some friends at our church, two baby girls and a boy.
 The label is hard to read, the thread is too close a match darn it! The girls quilts are almost identical except for backing and binding. This is October's quilt [a very unusual name for a little girl I know.]
 And Avery's quilt
It has a cute pieced flannel backing
One of the fabrics looks almost orange but it is actually a nice soft salmon color, and I used a pale pink thread 
 The nursery rhyme quilt is for the boy.
 "The Cow Jumped Over The Moon" is a flannel collection from Connecting Threads, but it's a couple of years ago so there is none left anywhere I looked. Consequently I had to fill in with a striped yellow flannel that did nicely for the back also. A pale yellow thread blended in nicely. All three quilts of course have that lovely Quilter's Dream Angel batting that is genetically engineered to be non flammable, absolutely no chemicals and soft as can be.

Two More Quilts Of Valor

These are for Vietnam Helicopter Pilots Reunion in May when four QOV's will be presented to veteran's.
 This is the back of one only, no pic of the front!
 The second, lots of mainly ruler work in these quilts, it seems to suit the patriotic style blocks best

Pretty In Pink

The adorable baby girl for whom I made this quilt, Erica's granddaughter, what a doll!
