The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Written by Vicky on July 12, 2009 – 7:09 pm -Last month I received some very happy news from one of my girlfriends. Her first baby, Milo, was born and this week I’m going to see him. Yay!
So, following tradition (well if you can call one other baby blanket making event tradition) I’ve made Milo a blanket. This time its a cotton quilt of the Very Hungry Caterpillar with appliqued gingham flowers, apples and pears.
It turned out a square shape (because of the print) so it might make a better play or changing mat than a blanket but I don’t mind what his mum uses it for as long as she likes it.
The blanket is bright and colourful like this funky little chap I found on the garden today. I wonder if he’s very hungry too…

The blanket looks fab – Claire and Milo will love it I am sure. Can’t believe how fast you got it done! x

The quilt is stunning, so vibrant and cheery. I bet Milo will be a very giggly baby!

Thank you! I was fuelled by Purdeys that day so I think that helped my sewing fingers go a bit faster
