how cute! I don’t have any babies though…
How pretty, and the red and black contrast would be striking for a baby room.
Love it!
That looks great! And the black and red and white that little babies are said to enjoy!
This is so pretty! I’ve had this printed for a while…It’d make a lovely baby gift.
Erin Go Braugh (or something like that). Perfect timing for the green color. Thanks!
Oh cute!
I know of a baby that is due in a couple of months, I think this would be a great gift idea for the new parents, and baby too!

That is so sweet! My best friend is having a baby . . . I can’t wait to make one for her!
I’ve decided I need more mobiles in my life. I love the red, black, and white one. I’d like to make one in greens and blues I think…
This is such perfect timing! I was just thinking yesterday about making or finding a mobile to put above the changing table for the entertainment of Baby-to-be. Thanks for reading my mind!
Wow. Super cute!
This is such a fun idea! Also, thanks for the links to the fabric yo-yo tutorial. I have been trying to figure out how to make these and I’m sure this will help.
That is such a neat idea.
That’s a great idea! I am going to a Baby Shower next week and all these ideas are wonderful!
Wow! That is one awesome mobile!!
Thank you!
Oh wow. Just when I thought you ladies couldn’t out do yourselves. This is so amazing!
I love this. And the colors are striking.
Oh the mobile looks so fun. I might try it out for my next baby. Totally fun.
This is spectacular! Thanks for sharing!
Perfect colors to inspire the baby. Really cute.
Although my children are not in baby beds anymore, great idea for hanging from the ceiling for their playroom! Love it!
Yet another clever use of a fat quarter! i spent a fortune on a baby mobile for my oldest child… wish this tutorial had been around then. Thanks.
i’m so glad i found this site – such awesome ideas.
So cute
I love pinwheels…..I just might have to make these for myself. Thanks for sharing.
Yea! I’ve got a baby coming this august and this will be perfect!
pretty!
OMG!! this is adorable! My mom totally has a thing for pinwheels, i shoud pass it along. Would be great for that new baby my bro is having!
Green is my favorite color, I hope I win. I have really enjoyed all of the projects and it has my mind spinning on what I can do next. Thanks
very cute. Thanks.
I love the color combos. Well thought out and pretty.
Lovely!
this is so cute! what a great idea for small scraps.
Those pinwheels are awesome. I can think of so many uses.
Love the pinwheels!!
The Spool Sewing Birdie is perfect for a mobile too!

It’s such a fun little bird to make!
I actually made a heart mobile for a friend for Valentine’s Day. It turned out so nice!
I wish I had this tutorial around when my boys were little.
Such a variety of mobiles. Where do you ladies get all these great ideas? I’m so inspired.
What great colors for a learning baby!
These are too cool! When you think of mobiles you typically think of ones for babies, but I like that some of them are simply decorative and chic. What a great idea to showcase some of your favorite fabric collections.
wishing for a baby to make this for. love, love the red and black too!
Such perfect timing! My girl’s nursery needs a mobile, and I just have not been feeling inspired. Thanks for the much-needed boost!
I’ll be sad to see February end! But I can keep buying fat quarters, as you can never have enough!!!
So lovely. I love the red/black/white combo.
I am planning a baby gift now and I think this may go in it. Thanks!
That’s such a neat idea. I’ve been thinking about some fun ways to decorate my daughter’s room. This is cute!
I wish I had a baby so I could make this!!!
All cute mobiles. Thanks for the link to the yo-yo tute. I missed that one before.
very nice! Love the fabric choices too.
That is just beautiful! I wish I had started crafting before I had kids.
I love pinwheels! I love mobiles! What a great idea to combine the two!
That is cute, I love it!
I love this, so fun. Thanks for linking us to all this inspiration yet again
I love the idea of a mobile swap. The mobile you pictured is quite lovely.
Such an adorable idea!
I love this – it would be great for the scraps from a baby quilt!
Great colors any baby would have to love having one of those in their room.
Thank you for posting this! I actually made all the pinwheels already (they have been in my W-I-P pile for several months)… just have to get the things together to assemble it now
And, for what its worth, i think pinwheels would look great hanging from a (straight) dowel in a window in a playroom too! Thats where mine are headed!
I plan on making a mobile for my sisters baby. Thanks for the tutorials!
I just love reading about all these ideas. Everything is so cute and colorful!
This is incredible. Wow, I’d love to make one with yo-yo’s in black and white fabrics. Off to the shop…
love the pinwheels they always make you smile!
Oooh, I can see a mobile in one of the fat quarters I just got in the swap (which I am enjoying tremendously, btw)!
So cute! WHAT a great idea!
i really like that idea!
i am a bit mobile addicted – this is a great one! thanks!
i love that depending on the fabrics you choose, you could actually make this quite grown up and decorative! it’s definitely something that would draw your eye!
I love this! My best friend is due to have her 2nd child in April…this would be a great gift, AND fun to make!
I’ve been looking for a mobile to make my baby girl-to-be. Thanks for the great idea!
i love the mobile idea. does anyone have a good tip for how to easily balance one? there is also an awesome bird mobile on the spool site made from the birds that were posted above.
Creative idea. Could perhaps find interesting home-dec uses for this.
These pinwheels are adorable. They will look great hanging in my windows individually. My cats will love them too!
I have been debating making one of these cuties. Just need the right inspiration, I think!
Very cute & fun! Such great ideas to use up my bits & pieces.
What a striking mobile! I’m expecting in July and have put this on my must make for baby list. Thanks for the tutorial! I’m off to the fabric store now on to see what I can find to make this!
Too cute
Love the colors
These are great! I work in a daycare center and think I may have to try this for the cribs. Thanks!
Now I need to find somewhere to stick a proliferation of pinwheels… I love the wee girls tutorial, as well. Adorable!
such a great baby project…..I love how baby stuff looks great in non-baby fabric!
