I saw this quilt and knew I had to make one! I just so happened to be taking part in a baby gift swap and my swap partner, Nikki was doing a nautical theme for her little guy. So this was perfect!
I used a lot of fabrics from my stash and picked up a few quarters from the fabric store as well. Because I used a solid navy back, I wanted to punch up the binding, so I made my own from a red and white polka dot calico using this tutorial.
And then I added an anchor applique because you can't have a nautical theme without an anchor!

Your quilt turned out beautiful. Timeless and perfect. The anchor is such a nice touch.
So cute. I'm planning a girl version of a similar quilt for my daughter.
Hi, I saw the picture of this quilt on someone's sidebar, and just had to come look at it. I LOVE IT! It would be a perfect patriotic quilt too. Great job!
I'm the Nikki in the post. Let me tell you that this quilt is just the most beautiful thing ever! When opened the box, my eyes welled up with tears. The anchor is just perfect! Thank you so much!
