Quick baby quilt

My mother's friend has a new great-grandson. We wanted to make a quick quilt for the new little one, and I had just the ticket. This is a Paddington Bear panel that is supposed to be used to make a soft book. I framed each page in sashing, including the cover and the back page (cropping the image and adding additional sashing to size) and asked a longarmer to quilt it in an allover teddy bear panto. I just finished the binding yesterday, and verified the baby's name for the label, which I made using a fussy cut Paddington Bear from the print on the back with an orange sashing border, which will be sewn on tomorrow.

I'm going to keep on the lookout for these panels for making books. I think it's a cute easy way to pop out a quilt in record time.
