On A Safari
Baby and mama will be
ready for adventure!
Planning

our homes. There are lots of animals in
this fabric to make our trip fun. This quilt

is fussy-cut to showcase the design.
Use an accurate ¼ ̋ seam allowance
throughout to ensure all elements of the
quilt fi t together well.
NOTE: Fabrics in the quilt shown are
from the Little Safari collection by Patricia
Zapata from Robert Kaufman Fabrics.
