A Baby Quilt for Sam

Sam is a baby who has had a difficult life.  He's been through many medical troubles, but his smile is enough to melt any heart!  I had the privilege of making a quilt out of some of Sam's baby clothes this Fall.  Let me tell you, his loving, wonderful mother picked out some adorable onesies to go on her adorable son!  Dogs, stripes, huggable monsters, giraffes, frogs, ducks - all things cute and boyish. I used the Double Hourglass method from Cluck. Cluck. Sew. It went together very easily - the only difficulty was the stretchy-ness of the material, because the clothes were all knits.  I used a basting spray to fix the fabric to muslin, and then cut the double-layered material into pieces.  This made the quilt heavier and slower to sew, but definitely helped with the stretching!
