Quilts by Julie Ramsey
A new-brother gift
One of my best friends from high school just had her second baby this week, hooray! Since I didn’t get a chance to send off a gift for the birth of her first, I’m making quilts for both kids to get shipped off soon. I decided on a very quick-and-easy pattern that I could work up in a few hours.
The first quilt is for the big brother, who’s about a year and a half old if I recall correctly. I wanted to do something bright and colorful, and this large-scale jungle print fit the bill perfectly! I love the way the bright blue compliments the green leaves and sets off the animal blocks.
I’m going to piece the second quilt tomorrow. The main print is teddy bears on pale green, with light blue sashing and yellow and green borders. It ended up being the same color scheme as the “boy” quilt, but much more subdued. I think it’ll look very cute and I look forward to seeing the finished product!
