Here’s what I’m up to now…

So, after thinking for quite a while about what to do for my second boy baby quilt for early June, I was finally struck with inspiration. My idea was to do sort of a combination of these two quilt patterns from Quiltmaker:

The one on the left is Turtle Twirl from the September/October ’08 issue, and the one on the right is Rickrack Regatta from the most recent (May/June ’09) issue.

I have this cute sailboat fabric, which I got on sale ages ago, which I thought would be great in place of the turtle print.

So, I changed the turtle to the sailboat from Rickrack Regatta (and added a second sail) here:

Then, I made the checkerboard part white and red:

So far, I’m very pleased with how it’s turning out. The next step is to attach the sailboat print borders. More to come when that’s done…
