While in Nova Scotia, I made my annual visit to Atlantic Fabrics. It has such cool cotton prints and I always find something interesting in the wood section. More on that later.
This time, I couldn't resist the Urban Zoology line of prints. I bought some fat quarters, even though I had no plans for them.
Enter: the baby block and taggie blanket.
Those animals are so cute.
For the cotton blocks, I used an iron on interfacing to help make it stiffer. For the fleece blocks, I used a non sew, stiff interfacing and sewed it to the squares by making the shapes.
One for a girl.....
One for a boy...
Don't forget to put a bit of crinkle ( chip bag) in the taggie blanket and some sort of sound maker in the block. I bought a cat toy with an enclosed bell.
have a great one...

love the chevron and the owl fabric!
Those fabrics are adorable - I don't even have kids but now I want to make fabric blocks! I love the owls and the monkeys particularly :)
wonderfully simple. Definitely something I will make! Thanks.

These are adorable! I need to sew for a couple of babies. This is perfect!
