Happy New Year everyone! I've been enjoying a little bit of quiet time after all of the Holiday Hoopla. A little time to rest, and breathe, and contemplate what the new year might have in store for me.
You'll recall from my last post
(here) that I was going to use my time off from work to make 2 custom baby quilts, one pink, one purple. They're nearly done!
It's not like there's ever going to be a shortage of cute pink fabrics, right? This is just a fun collection of prints pulled from my stash.
The ladybug fabric from the front is also on the back.
The purple quilt proved to be a little more problematic in terms of fabrics. When I went to Joann's to look for a few bright nursery prints there was not a single one in purple. And I felt that the fabrics I already had weren't lively enough for a baby quilt.
A touch of lime green brightened things up nicely! I think it was just the right touch!
On the back: butterflies!
Both quilts are 36" square, and made of 36 6.5" blocks.
I just need to hand sew the bindings, and they'll be done!
Where did you get the lady bug fabric for the backing of the top quilt?
ReplyDeleteI bought it at Joann's Rebecca. I don't see it on their website anymore, but you can always try Ebay or Etsy. Thanks for your question!
