Baby Quilts

We returned home from Utah on Thursday evening.  After dinner and putting the kids to bed, I went right to work on finishing the baby quilts.  I am happy with how they turned out. The baby shower was on Friday night at 7:00, and I finished them at about 5:45.  I had a lot o fun making them.  My friend is having twin boys, and they will be babies 7 and 8 for the family.  I was able to have the oldest five come over one afternoon to secretly  each make a quilt block for the quilts.  I thought it would be special to have all the siblings have a part in it.  I took pictures of each of them with their quilt block to give to their mom. ( I won't be posting them)  
I forgot to take pictures of the backs to show how I chose to quilt them.  I'll go to their house to take some, and post them later. 



I chose the Log Cabin block because it is fast and simple, but looks nice.




The quilt backings are both a nice warn and thick flannel.
