This is my mother and baby giraffe quilt. I had a big bag of little black and white scraps, left over from other projects, and I wanted to use them up. Cleaning out a bin of patterns, paper and old templates one day, I came across a page torn from one of my children's colouring in books of an outline of the mother and baby giraffe. Here was a good idea for those black and white scraps !
I enlarged to about 36" long and traced my drawing onto tracing Vilene.
Mamma Giraffe is coming together.
Mamma and Baby Giraffe are all fused onto the background fabric and sewn down by machine applique using a buttonhole stitch.
This quilt is now ready to quilt.
Happy quilting !
So nice to see you back blogging again - it certainly has been a while! I just love your Mother and Baby giraffe, you are well on the way with just the quilting to do now.
