The 6-month baby quilt for my Grandson is June, and here in San Diego that means beaches and sail boats. In the fall of 2015, his home was destroyed by a fire, and in it was the original June quilt. It was my favorite of the yearly quilts, with sailboats and bright colors.
To replace it, I decided on something totally different! I researched cartoon sea creatures on google, and drew some out on 5" muslin squares, then tinted them with inktense pencils. Then I water painted them, and they became color fast and permanent. I then alternated with squares from a charm pack themed sea creatures and numbers. Some of the drawn blocks included numbers and counting circles.
This was a real fun replacement quilt to make to photograph Zeke on his 18 month portrait.
