Back to Quilting- Baby quilt

I figured out what I want to do for my step-daughter, Amber's, first child. I found this GREAT fish print (already in blocks) for a baby quilt. In watching my grandson, Kai play with a wallhanging that was down from the wall, it hit me the type of quilt I'll put together. This is the wallhanging...and he was playing with the 3-D pinwheels. They are just folded squares, made into prairie points, and sewn into the seam of the '4-patch'. I used leftover prairie points in the middle border. Very simple. I'll try it with a few of the 'fish blocks and see how it comes out. If it works I'll post a tutorial ...

Great baby quilt. My mom, sister and I made one in pastels oh so many years ago! It's so adaptable and babies LOVE them.
