It is so adorable. Monkeys are the most adorable ever. Great colors and quilting.

Where did you find such adorable fabric or who is it made by? Border and sashing fabric is just perfect. You did an excellent job on the quilting design emphasizing the fabric design. You really stepped up to the plate for your daughter. Mom and baby will love it.

Nice quilt, Mom! That daughter owes you a favor--I always ask for a cleaning or painting chore--LOL! Also, I'm very intrigued by your quilting design on the dots--wish I could see it drawn out--does it go from one side to the other and then you went back in the other direction?

This is one I’ll keep in mind. It can be done with one yard of the main fabric, 1/2 yard for the contrasting strips and about 3/4 yard for the thin strips and binding. (Although I had to use two different fabrics for the binding because I didn’t have enough of either one.) It’s about 42 inches square so a nice baby size.

It turned out better than expected, although I got better at tracing the dots as I went along.
