So I'm wanting to create a one of a kind baby quilt for a friend.

Her nursury theme for her son is in space decor and I found this darling rocketship print.



I'm thinking I'm just going to back it with a solid or a contrast... and applique a large rocket ship to the center of the quilt on the rocket ship side...

But on the BACK!
I'd like to applique' a TARDIS (From Dr. Who) The daddy is a huge fan of the BBC series.

I've never done applique' before.

Does anyone have any ideas where I could find a pattern for a police call box? ('blue '60s phone booth) or do you think I could draft one?

Hi Jen :)

My husband loves Dr. Who, I like the newer ones :)

Here is a picture of a pillow with a tardis applique:

I searched etsy for a pattern but they only had cross stitch or crochet tardis patterns

Oh, just found this:
