lotti Riaan's Quilt - second of a series of 4 "landscape" baby quilts designed to "grow" with the child the basis for the design is a childhood drawing riaan's mom had done on a postcard she sent me many many years ago this was very freely interpreted according to materials in my stash and the shops while i was searching different materials were used to give the baby interesting textures to feel and explore while still quite small buttons, ribbons and things were used to embellish and add interest for baby and child. crochet flowers can be added / moved (affixed to the button flowers) when the child is a little older. again the blanket can be used as background for wooden and other toy animals, cars & whatnot flowers made of ribbons from riaans' parents' wedding, as well as leather collars with bells (around the sheeps' neck) were added after foto was taken
