    I recently posted some pics of wallhangings that my local librarian is gracious enough to display for me. One in particular prompted a commission of a baby quilt. Here's the original post - http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-122115-1.htm
    I'm still working on the baby quilt, but wanted to give you a preview of how the sample piece turned out. It is for a boy, and so the colors are predominately blue, and also I felt the bunnies shouldn't be all females, so I adjusted the pattern to have "boy" bunnies with shorts instead of dresses. I added embroidery to the faces, so that it would hold up better under repeated washings, and since not all bunnies are the same color, I added some off white that I also had in my flannel stash. There will be 30 bunnies in all, half female, half male, half brown, and half white, on a grid of 5x6. Here is what it looks like on the preview piece...
