Two Neonatal Quilts (Both PIGS)



These quilts were both quilted on the domestic and they both came from the To Do list (PIGS). The aqua one emptied the PIGS bag but for the blue and yellow one enough material remains to make another baby quilt. The pattern is a simple sewing together of squares from charm packs for both quilts. These quilts were made as my “ticket” into the guild’s Alice Love event in March.
