Baby Fabric

A very happy Monday to all!!

I've been absent without any explanation, I know, but hopefully you all know by now that I have an excuse.  We learned last week that we are having a BOY, and I'm still in shock!  I really thought it was a girl!  He's an energetic little boy, too... he kicks his mother non-stop (especially at night.)

Anyways, I thought it was about time I shared the fabric I'll be using for my son's quilt, since I think I promised to show you over a month ago.  We picked this before we knew what our baby would be, but because I had in the back of my mind that it was a girl, we also selected ribbons to go with the fabric.  Which I will not be using now. 


The large fabric is extremely soft fleece, and this will be the back of the quilt.  I think I need at least one more fabric for the front - perhaps a brown, perhaps a tan.  Definitely not more polka dots; even though we tried to pick unisex fabric, it now looks somewhat feminine to me.  Darn it.

I also have a quilt pattern to share, which I made a few weeks ago for a good friend, but first I have to put it into a format that can be easily downloaded. 

In the meantime, I hope everyone has a lovely week!
