| I started by Mistyfusing a variety of Batik fabrics, keeping in mind the colors for the baby's room. |
 |
| Using a Goddess Sheet to fuse, to protect my iron. Mistyfuse makes these. |
 |
| Using the Goddess Sheet, it really helps the Mistyfuse bond well to the fabric. You will always be able to tell what side the Mistyfuse is on. |
 |
| Okay, I Mistyfused alot of different fabrics, to utilize all of the colors. Whatever I don't use, will end up in the Mistyfused scrap tower, sorted by color, for some other project. |
 |
| These fabrics will become the borders for my baby quilt. You are probably asking yourself if I normally do borders, I do not, except for this particular project, where I am framing a piece of artwork in the center. |
 |
| Cutting up and putting back together to create a long string of fabrics |
 |
| My line drawing of what a baby is, painting with watercolors and photo transferred to fabric. This artwork is copyrighted by me. |
 |
| Free motion machine quilted. It measures to about 11x14 |

| The back, and pop tops sewn onto the back for easy hanging in the baby's nursery |
I love how that came out, such a cute idea. I have some kid's fabrics that I won and plan on making charity quilts, so fun to see ideas that I can use to make them. I got my mistyfuse package today, so I plan on reading the packages to see what uses they have and then planning something around them.
