Hooty Hoot Car Seat Canopy

This car seat canopy was made with the Hooty Hoot collection by Riley Blake and was made to go with the owl quilt previously posted. The fabric on the under side of the car seat canopy is made with the super soft, "minky cuddle" fabric. Babies really seem to love this fabric and naturally snuggle up to it, so when the car seat canopy is not attached to the handle of the car seat it can easily be used as a blanket for baby. I also made a matching burp rag and drool cloth to go with the canopy. Both the burp rag and drool cloth were made with minky spa cloth that is both absorbent and super soft. All three items have a decorative stitch around the edges.

The Hooty Hoot Quilt

I've been waiting for what seems like forever to post one of my favorite quilts to date. I loved the colors in this collection and the owls were just too cute. My friend, Chelsea had me make this quilt for her sister that is soon to be having a baby boy. This was the first quilt I've made with a panel along with different patterns. When the quilt was finished I just fell in love with end results. I never post photos of my finished items until the client has received their quilt or car seat canopy. It would be such a bummer if they saw their gift before actually receiving it. As soon as Chelsea told me that her sister received the blanket and loved it I had to post the photos as soon as I had the chance. It's too bad that this collection is no longer available for purchase because I would have loved to make more of these. I actually have enough fabric and one more panel to make one more quilt, so I'd be so happy to make it for anybody who is interested in it. The quilt would cost $60.00, and a matching burp rag and drool cloth would be included with the quilt.
