It looks like a long fringe on the bottom at first glance. I like it. Great quilt. Love the animals and the bright colors.

I think it's perfect!

I like to tell stories about my quilts and the reason for fabric choices. You can tell her that the fabric represents the security fences and that the people are looking thru the fence to the animals in the wild. It works for me.

You could even weave long stories for the child about the quilt and the animals using the striped fabric to even represent houses the people are living in.

I agree. I like the idea about the stories and reasons for the fabric choices. The security fence and people looking thru it is cute.

I agree with taking some off to put on top. Just think it's adorable.

I like the first version best. That is a very cute quilt and I'm sure it will be loved!

I like the fabric but not the way you have it on the bottom. I would take some and put it on the top as well as on the bottom. The quilt is very cute, but don't leave that big chunk of stripes down there.

Can almost see those little hands grabing for that cute,colorful quilt.

The quilt is adorable but I agree. I would divided the strip fabric to put half at the top and half at the bottom. AS far as the baby blanket being square that is not a problem. Hang your quilt up and stand back and look at it and go with whatever appeals the most to you. That is the best way. Then you will be satisfied and the baby and mother will both be happy.

Really cute!
