There are several baby quilts to complete this year. This one is for baby Madeline, Cousin Amy's baby due in June. I was also invited to the baby shower but since it was in Wisconsin, I declined. The quilt was completed in time to be shipped to the shower. Cousin Julie, the grandmother, reported that everyone liked the quilt, especially the back. I thought the back was perfect for Amy and would complement her interest in scrap booking and other crafts. This is a quilt and an "I Spy With My Little Eye" game. The various fabrics came from my inventory and a couple of Layer Cakes from the Missouri Star Quilting Company that are sold especially for I Spy quilts. The jar pattern was inspired by a MSQC video, too.
