The Zoo Crib Quilt



I used the “Jumping Jacks” crib quilt pattern from Quilts from Sweet Jane by Sue Pfau. I used this pattern previously for the “Hold Tight” quilt in March of this year and the “Socky” quilt in May 2014. This has become my go to crib quilt pattern.

The charm packs for this quilt came from Missouri Star Quilting Company sale. The fabric is called “Ticket to the Zoo” and has zoo animals on it. The back is a sloth print flannel from my stash. I got it from fabric.com sale.

This quilt will go to Aida’s new grandson, James Chauncey.
