Baby Boy Quilt!

My cousin and his wife are having their first baby. I'm so excited for them. They have been trying for awhile and started to worry. No worries, baby boy Conner is coming! Kristen had her shower last weekend. I called my aunt and said "what color and what themes" She said blue, grey, and airplanes.

It's kind of hard to tell. My photography took place right before dusk, so light was dimming, but look at this PERFECT fabric I found! 

See the airplanes?? It's Robert Kaufman Inkjet Designs by Marie Perkins.

  And notice my quilt lable? I had them made up at Spoonflower!! I think I shared this on my last post, but it's been so long who would remember, haha!

 I also went with my go-to boy quilting- Circuit board(slightly wonky).

I was being a bit frugal with the backing. The quilt turned out bigger that I thought but I had enough of this matching Kona solid Caribbean:)

I kept cut the cones pretty freeform. This resulted in a wider than I wanted and shorter than I wanted quilt, so I just made it a 47x47in square....or so I thought. when I was all done, binding and all, it actually measured 46.25x47. I thought it was a little off when I looked at it, but oh well, what is done is done!

Here is another project I am working on that I actually started on before the baby quilt.

It's another Elizabeth Hartman quilt. You can find the tutorial here.  I actually started on this first but realize the baby shower was fast approaching so I had to switch gears.:( And NOW Purse Palooza is coming up so this quilt will have to wait again. you know I hate to have UFO's!!! But I haven't put it away so technically it's a WIP:) 

Well that's all I got today! I gotta get some work in on my purse. Stay tuned to hear about my inspiration for that one!
