Baby A's blocks are done

We added a few more garments to the pile and now have enough blocks for a twin sized quilt - with a little border of course. There won't be any sashing - decided the backing created enough of a space between the special pieces to give the quilt some order. And, we will have two borders: a 3" border from the black backing material and then a 6" border of something groovy we find that pulls everything together.

Now, we are trying to decide on the lay out. The three odd sized pieces are going to go on black background - each on its own separate block. They will form the middle rows - Happy baby in the middle, mom on the right and dad on the left. Then all the other blocks will be arranged around this center.

The current layout is rather symmetrical but that felt like the way to go on this quilt. We'll see how Mom likes it.
