Birth Wall Quilt

On this lovely long weekend while getting over the flu, I finished of a little quilt for my sister’s new baby boy and my first nephew who is already 3 months old.  She doesn’t sew and therefore wouldn’t know the effort put in to make this but I started this tradition with the birth of my first niece and felt obliged to continue with….

For Sophie  And another early addition to my tradition.  Perhaps I should have kept to this same style for all of them?
