I've loved this line ever since I bought my daughter a pram quilt made in it! I then upcycled it into a HST chevron cuchion cover for my sister before we left Australia! Now she's due with her 1st in February and I'm making a gender neutral cot quilt and then 2 "specific" pram quilts and she'll get whichever is appropriate. I'd use these to make the girl's quilt! A perfect circle of life kinda thing!
