Baby Animals

When a friend asked me to help her make a quilt for an adoptee baby boy she had cared for, but confessed her sewing skills were suspect, I asked "can you color?"  Surprised, she said sure.  So, we searched google images for Baby Animal Cartoons, traced them onto lightly blue dyed muslin.  Colored with the inktense colored pencils (go on like colored pencils; add water with a brush and the inks become vibrant and color fast.) and made a simple setting with a collection of fat eights.  She was delighted!
