Falling Leaves baby quilts

For Sophie, October 2007
R felt that her first baby was "orange."  We picked out the fabric together at JoAnn's.
For the orange leaves, I used fat quarters. I think I bought 12 or so and only used half of them. Some of the blue trim fabric was later used to make her baby brother a kimono shirt.
The quilt measured about 3 x 4 feet.
I like how it turned out - like gorgeous leaves falling on a blue, sunny day.

I machine quilted along where the veins of the leaves would be.
On the back it looks like lots of chicken feet!
