Sunshine Fun Vintage Baby Animal Crib Size Quilt by faeriegood

I machine embroidered these wonderful vintage baby animal motifs, 9 in all with top quality Isacord threads made in Germany. There's a puppy, kitty, calf, lamb, kid, turtle, piglet, duckling and bunny. In all there are twelve blocks so some are repeated in different colors. The piecing for the quilt is done using many different pastel child prints of 30's all new reproduction quilt shop quality cotton fabrics. The backing is soft orange and creme print so it will work for girls or boys. Warm and natural 100% cotton batting was used for the middle layer. It has been machine quilted using meandering, stitch in the ditch and several different decorative quilting stiches, all done with nylon thread so as not to distract from the beautiful embroidery.The double fold binding was hand sewn for the best possible finish.It measures 52x38 inches.

10% will be donated to EFA's charity of the month.
