A friend of mine from high school recently contacted me and asked if I could make a patchwork quilt for her new son. (So excited for her!) She found some fabrics online that she loved and they were a variety of Birch organics (yes, she has great taste).
Using 6 half yards, 2 yards of camper fabric and 1 fat quarter of the orange bears (that print is so difficult to find), I was able to make all of this:
The quilt is backed with Kona White and quilted in straight lines 1/4″ along each seam.
Here is the minkie backed camper blanket. I’d love one of these for myself, Birch fabrics are SO soft.
Two diaper covers.
Three bibs. I got to use my new KamSnaps!
Three burp cloths.
And a bear sack to hold the covers, bibs and cloths.
I literally have a handful of scraps left and that’s it. Cheers to babies!

Great items for a baby boy. Love them all! I’m sure your friend will be thrilled to have everything you made for her little baby boy.
How do you like the Kam snaps? Are they easy to insert? What style and size do you use. Did you buy their snap setter?
Sorry for all the questions, but I’ve been thinking about trying them out and would like your input.

I love the orange in this one.

I love that outdoorsy camper fabric, Julie. As an RVer, I can relate to it and love spending a lot of time in the outdoors. Thanks for sharing!

Ooooh I love ALL of them! Super cute. I’m interested in the Kam snaps too…never seen them or used them, but they look awesome!
