Pinks and greens


I just finished this beautiful baby quilt last night. I love the vibrant colors and all the yummy fabrics. It measures 37x41 inches. I think it will look great as a car seat cover or even a throw over the back of a rocking chair. It's nice and cuddling too because of the soft pink flannel on the back. I hope my soon-to-come niece likes it. No tutorial link this time because this quilt is all me baby!New project on the horizon. Can you guess what this awesome fabric is for? I kind of want to go buy more because I think it would be great for pillows in my living room but no, it's not for pillows.

Goals

I had two goals for today. Plan a primary activity- check. And cut my 5 inch squares for a baby quilt - check. Only one problem, when I was cutting my fabric it turned out that I didn't have enough fabric to do all 5 inch squares. So half are 5 inch squares and the other half and 3.5 x 5 inch rectangles. Now to make up a new design. What do you think?
Oh the fun of taking pictures with this little guy around. Good thing he's cute.

Baby boy ragged quilt

I've got a ton of stuff planned to make but until I get the fabric to make it I'm going to show past projects.
This is a quilt I made for a friend that had a baby boy. I found the tutorial here.
Super simple quilting. I love the design it makes on the back. I'm kinda thinking I want to make another one now. :)
And cute star binding.

Don't you all love Crazy Mom Quilts?! When I was pregnant with my little girl I found this tutorial and just had to make one for my new little one. I love it. It's a few months old now and I love that the more I wash it the softer it gets. It was also my first time using my new quilting foot on my machine so don't look too closely at the back.
Some green leafy binding.
A strip of patchwork across the back.
I love the quilt but I still think the baby is cuter!

Pinwheels

My dear sister is getting married in one short week. This is a quilt I made for her. Don't you love polka dot binding?! I think it's beautiful and I hope she enjoys a lot of cuddling with her new husband under it.
The back is actually a twin size flat sheet that I added some patchwork to.
