I know it's impossible to tell in this picture, but I think it's about 32"x32" - something like that! not big, but probably good for a crib or a car seat.
Here's a closeup of the binding:
The binding was scrap fabric I bought in a little grab bag of stuff at an antique mall I think. I never want to use the good stuff...but especially for a baby quilt. I mean you know it's going to get puked on! But really, it's still to let it just sit in the closet! I should just put it to use!
I didn't do a lot of quilting - just straight lines on either side of the seams - I think the orange thread kind of mimics jeans, so it works with the denim, and also orange and blue just look great together!
The background is some fabric I bought online and thought I'd use it for a dress, but the scale of the print turned out to be bigger than I expected and I wasn't so sure it'd be a great dress! that's what you get when you buy online - but it's not like it goes bad - it got a new life as a quilt back!
