Feb 14 2008, 10:35 AM EST It is probably not what you want to do, but Target has a whole wonderful set of Winnie the Pooh... you also might check JoAnn's as they have panels, which might help. Check their website to check for availablity. The panel wil make a fast and nice quilt that you can finish by adding HSQ or what ever design around the panel in related fabrics. Congratulations on your up coming grand child... sounds like the baby is very lucky to have you as a grandma!! Kari 4 out of 4 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: winnie the pooh baby quilt
Feb 29 2008, 6:02 PM EST years ago I did an antique winnie the pooh quilt for my daughters second grade teacher, who was expecting her first child. I took pictures from a copy of the original illustrations of Pooh and his friends and redrew them to fit small muslin squares and colored them with fabric crayons. I then framed the squares with mitered corners, sashing was placed between the blocks and quilted with a co ordinating backing in the colors the teacher was hoping to do her nursery in, mostly mint greens, yellows, etc. I quilted it by hand mostly in outline quilting of the pictures with motifs in the sashing. Per the instructions on the crayons it was washable and hopefully it held up. The teacher moved several states away at the end of the year. I have seen 50 year old crayola crayon muslin squares done in nursery rhymes that are still beautiful and were done in quilts long before fabric crayons and or paint were thought of. Be original and if all else fails Hobby Lobby and Walmart has Winnie the Pooh fabric. Good luck ! 3 out of 4 found this valuable. Do you? |

Mar 7 2008, 1:47 AM EST Another way that I use when I want to make a quilt with a popular character, is to go and buy some coloring books. If you find and image in one but it is not the right size, all you have to do is resize it with your printer and computer. They have giant coloring books that I have found at Walmart that are wonderful! Congratulations on your new grandchild! What a blessing! Best Wishes to You and Your Family.... 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: winnie the pooh baby quilt
Apr 12 2008, 7:31 AM EDT I made my great niece a Winnie the Pooh quilt about 11 years ago. I bought a set of preprinted sheets, and cut it all apart and appliqued it to blocks. I set them on point and used sashing in between. They turned out really cute. This was the newer version, not the classic, which is what her Mother requested. Hope that helps. 0 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |
