    I made this baby quilt for my soon-to-be-born great nephew in SC. The nursery colors are orange and white, (Texas Longhorn theme) but I needed more colors than that to work with. I used a florescent orange dotted minkee for the back and wrap round binding. I quilted around the center squares and tied at the corners with orange yarn. It's large...about 48 x 48. It's more like a comforter... or a fluffy play place for the floor. I will deliver the quilt while I am in the Carolinas'.
    Hope the pic shows up.

    Great quilt, love the colors. I also like minkee for backing on baby quilts, it's so soft and washes great.
