Prehistoric Crib Quilt

This is my first attempt at quilting.  I learned why most quilts are only made out of one type of fabric.  Here, the dinosaur print is flannel and the blue (as well as all green backing) is this ultra-plush kind of microfiber.  They stretch differently and the ultra plush is very hard to "square up" yet is more forgiving while the flannel is easy to get 90 degree angles with and will show any mistakes.  The kid is only 2 months old so I doubt he's going to care.   
 Applique dinos based on some image searches.  Just used regular fleece but it was nice to be able to cover up a corner that didn't quite square up as well as the others.
