Some bindings......

I decided this quilt was too small for a baby quilt at a little under 34" square so I hand finished the binding and put a hanging sleeve on the back.
I machine finished this binding.  The quilt is about 32" x 40".  Now I need to wash the baby quilts and have them ready for gifts.  There aren't any new babies in the family; I just like to have a stack ready to choose from.

They are both beautiful. Such beautiful batiks. Lucky little babies. I find myself looking at batiks everywhere I shop :D

You're still going I see. I also like to have at least one baby quilt around for an unexpected baby.

I like both quilts, especially the first one - that seashell border really sets it off. It's funny... I have lots of batiks but I've never thought of doing a totally batik quilt.

That orange and pink batik quilt has wonderful texture. You take the simplest patterns and make them look so interesting. My eye is constantly traveling around that piece.
