Baby Quilts #2 and #3

I've been a little remiss in posting, but I was working furiously on getting these two baby quilts finished in time for the respective showers. Both moms were thrilled, and I'm glad they're done!

Land of Lincoln


I used the block 'Cross in a Cross' and did an on-point setting. I'm very happy with how this one turned out. The back (silly me forgot to photograph) is all auto shop tools, as dad is a welder & gearhead.


I did a simple quilting following the inside of the squares on the quilt, using varigated thread.

Lily Pads


This darling is the Monkey Wrench block done in batiks, and tied to finish. I generally don't tie baby quilts, but this one just wasn't lending itself to being quilted in any way that made me happy, the night before the shower.

So there you go. A two-fer this morning! Hope you enjoyed!
