I am a woman from the Netherlands. I am married to John and we have a cat called Sjors. I love stitching and quilting very much and most post will be about that.

Minkee babyquilt
There will only be a green border on it and than it is finished, but before I do that I have a question: I am using flanel as the backing, what should I do as stuffing or doesn't need it stuffing. The top is also totally with minkeefabrics, so it is already warm and adorable to touch.
Any ideas are welcome, also for the quilting. I don't want to quilt it much as it has to stay fluffy (hope I say the right word).
Now I am back to work on spring snapperland as I decided to go and stitch some more on that one. MTM stays in the freezer for awhile, maybe next week.

that is so cute!
Adorable quilt and it even looks cuddly in the picture. I doubt that it needs any batting but how about a thin layer of flannel just for a little substance between it and the backing fabric?
Minkee is soooo soft to touch... how is it to quilt with?
I've always loved this pattern for a baby quilt! I back my Little Boys quilts with fleece and never use a middle layer (wadding/batting). I figure it will dry faster in the dryer without the middle layer! And, because I use soft fabrics (most his tops are flannel) - I never feel it is necessary.
Great job!
Cheers!
