Happy 4th of July to my American Friends!

Forest Friends Quilt
In May, the Boundary Bay Quilt Guild had it’s show. Usually the show is every 2 years, but it was delayed for several years because of … you guessed it … Covid.
There was a Baby Quilt Challenge. And, if you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I have a hard time resisting a challenge!
In an old Quiltmaker magazine … I found this Sly Fox pattern. A few alterations and the size fit the requirements for the guild challenge.
Here is the original:

Of course, I used beautiful Island Batik fabrics from my stash.

Here are some close-ups of the quilting:
