I bought the charm pack as well as fabrics from the Dream On collection. With the addition of a yard of white Kona cotton and a couple of fabrics from the collection, I made this simple, but pretty quilt:
Some close-ups of the quilt:
I left out the striped fabrics from the collection so that I could use it for the sashing. As I was putting together this quilt, I thought it would be perfect for my niece, who was born this past April. Her baby quilt is long overdue and I'm happy that she's getting such a bright and cheerful one.
I'm going to try to quilt it this week. Maybe I'll even finish it in time for Hannukah for her!
I am so glad I found you on Lily's! I am gonna camp here for a while and explore your work because what I've seen so far I love! I am jealous of your mad fabric colouring skills and I'm curious to know more about your seemingly simple looking techniques. Also, I know exactly what you mean about late baby quilts - my best friend's daughter was never given a baby quilt at birth and I didn't find out about it until she was almost two and I found a second hand queen sized comforter in her crib. As a quilter, I was appalled! Check out the quilt I made her for Christmas on my blog: http://fromheadtofabric.blogspot.com/2011/11/pixie-mato.html
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is sooo pretty! Lucky little girl to be getting it. I specially love the peach and lemon colours together!
