initial selection

I just finished piecing a baby blanket —

finished quilt top

Originally, I was going to use all decorator scraps — but it didn’t feel youthful enough, so to enliven the design, I added some cows, some spinning stick figures (a chunk leftover from the Preschool Commission Quilt) and the Australian ocher birds .  It was Danny’s idea to add the blue.  Looking at it now, I think a little more of the mid-range green should have come out to the top edge.  Tomorrow, I’ll quilt and bind it.
