A Pinwheel Quilt for Kade

I made this Pinwheel Quilt for two friends of mine who just had their first baby.


The nursery colors are green and brown, so I tried to stay with that theme without making it scream "BABY".  The jungle animal backing is fun :)  I chose straight-line quilting in a diagonal pattern which was quick and easy on this small quilt!


My favorite part of the quilt is the binding. This was my first time to use a striped binding. I'm in love. It's so cute! 


I rarely make quilts to give away, so I hope baby Kade will enjoy it for many years!
