The Pregnancy Quilt

During my first pregnancy, I started a quilt. I made one block for each month of the pregnancy. I used fusible web, inking, and some thread work to complete the blocks. I had finished Month Seven by the time my son was born. Here (finally) is the completed quilt. Click on the titles of the blocks in the list below to see a close up.
