Sock Monkey Baby Crib Quilt

I had enough material to create two sock monkey quilts.  The first one is the one that stays at my house:




The other is cherished by my grandson, Liam. I'll show the process for this one. Here I have cut out the pieces to form the sock monkey body for the front of the quilt. I appliqued this to the brown dotted fabric.

I have the squares cut and laid out on a brown background to give me a visual of how I want the pattern to form.


Then I put the squares together with the solid brown strips between.



All three layers were basted to hold things together while I quilted it.

There's also a crib bumper to match the quilt.


Liam has adopted it as a toy.
