Quilt for my baby

Turtle Love


This was a quilt I began piecing when The Man and I thought about getting pregnant. I loved the plaid flannel squares and the southwest style turtles together with the blue flannel pajamas of a fellow Mad Quilter.

I finished quilting this when Mr. Moo was about four months old. One of the reasons I was so behind in my baby quilts was that about the seventh month of my pregnancy I developed something similar to carpal tunnel. Other people have swollen ankles, I got swollen wrists. My hands were constantly numb making quilting out of the question, and they didn't get better until Mr. Moo was about 3 months old.
