I had a last minute baby shower I just got an invitation to, and I drew a baby's name for a gift swap. I had to come up with something in a hurry and I had bought this adorable Tonka Truck fabric that I had no clue what I was going to do with it. So inspired by joyful heart's Finding Nemo quilt on Craftster, I decided to make a couple of stroller quilts with the Tonka truck fabric and some fine black corduroy I had laying around. I thought the corduroy would be good for the whole texture, stimulating that babys' senses thing and I used a thick dark grey t-shirt material, that I have a ton of, for the middle, to give it another texture and because the fabric is a nice weight and will keep the wee one warm, but won't be too heavy.
This is the Tonka Truck fabric:
And these are the quilts:
They are about 2 1/2 feet square. My mother was throwing a fit that they would be too small, but I think they are just right for a stroller, or a car seat. Maybe?
