lucille's onesie quilt

view from above
 my super crafty neighbor and friend in florida made a fabulous quilt from her son's onesis and small clothes.  what a wonderful idea and so i had to make one for lucille.
quilted with yarn in alternating corners








mind you, thus far, my limited sewing experience included only square, simple items (i.e. curtains, duvet, pillow shams). that did not dissuade me in the least, as many of you mom's know, it is hard to part with those sentimental first clothes.

my one and only helped out a lot on this quilt and the result made us smile  lucy's quilt is a twin size to fit her bed, though, i probably will put it away after a year to ensure minimal wear and tear.  check robin's onesie quilt out at her blog:  heartmadebyhand.blogspot.com

  1. This is such a sweet and clever idea. Almost makes me want my little man to grow up quicker so I can put all his onesies together and make one as well!
