This is my 1st quilt finish of the year. Yes, it's another gingham quilt. I like the simple, timeless, classic design and I really like having a few on hand to welcome new babies. Last month I needed 2 and it was so nice to have some ready.
Sometimes a fabric just feels right for a gingham quilt. Such was the case for this sweet floral and coordinating fabrics I pulled from my stash back in May of 2023.
Sandy quilted it with this sweet daisy design that shows nicely in this shot
I backed it with this soft peachy-pink Minky that I've used often in the past
It finished at 48x58 -
The quilting shows well in this one
I had trouble capturing the colors accurately
But this is pretty close
After the sub-zero morning, 38° felt almost warm and that sky was SO blue
I know some of you are gasping that I toss my quilts out in the wild like this, but it's just for a few pictures - they get a good wash
I think this made a sweet finish
Pink gingham is the perfect size for a baby quilt, large enough for a parent to also cuddle under while rocking the baby at night.
ReplyDeleteDo you make the pattern in rows or four patches? I want to try one. Dotti in CT
ReplyDeleteI love that pink quilt--and you did a wonderful job of marrying those fabrics all together--and I love the way you photograph your quilts--so just keep doing 'your' thing!!! hugs, di
ReplyDeleteOoh! I love your gingham quilts. The pink grunge fabric is perfect for this one. My granddaughters still use theirs. :)
