Rocket Science Quilt

Baby quilts are so much fun! Good thing I know so many wonderful people having babies in the next few months. I finished this one pretty quickly... only because I kind of had to. I thought my friend was due in October like the rest of the pregnant people I know. Woops. I decided her baby boy is going to be a red-headed rocket scientist. They can feel free to pin all their hopes and dreams on him.

The fabric line is called Rocket Age by October Afternoon, a designer for Riley Blake. I fussy-cut the circles to include the best parts of the picture. Like you're looking through a telescope in a window.

Denim piping! And, in keeping with tradition, a thread in the top left corner that I didn't notice until just now. For crying out loud.

Hmmm. That minky looks totally different in this photo - the one above is more true to the color. I just wanted you to get a load of the quilting design. I thought it was the coolest.

As my Mom said when she saw this quilt, "I love fabric." Ha! :)
