Well...finally made a start on my baby quilt. I am really excited about this as I have been wanting to do this quilt since last year. even bought the fabric last year. I have done this quilt before but wanted to make it again in different fabric and a little bit bigger as well (cot size)
Felt very productive, as I managed to do all the cutting and write down a basic outline of how I want to write up the pattern. This will be a very easy and quick-to-do quilt, involving basic strip piecing.
Bit of a peek at the blocks...so cute, the zebras will be hopping all over the place.
Managed to chain piece a fair number of blocks already. This is super easy to do and should come together quickly.
Linking up to WIP at Freshly Pieced.
Until next time

That zebra print is adorable. I love it with the dots.
ReplyDeleteDots are great...looking at the photo now I think the second dotty fabric I bought looks actually better than the first.
Deletedarling fabric! they look so good together. thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThanks, actually putting the orange with the blue and white really made those colours pop
DeleteLove the zebras. The fabrics all work well together. Shame about that original fabric. I don't understand why people put those restrictions on their fabric?
ReplyDeleteNo, don't get this either. Usually I watch out for this and don't purchase the fabric if it carries that restriction, but I missed it that time.
DeleteI love those fabrics together, and the colours are fab! So perfect for a baby, but not overly babyish - my favourite :)
ReplyDeleteCan't take credit for the colours as I am more of a muted type of colour person. My daughter chose the colours...she has an incredible sense for colour combinations and gets it right in an instance when I am usually still standing there agonizing over different choices. She often makes me go out of my comfort zone. Seeing it together now, I really like it.
ReplyDeleteThat is going to be a great quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh how cute. I love it. I can't wait to see it finished. I posted some WIP today but I missed the linky. It was nice to meet you. I'll be back to see your progress. I signed up to follow you. I'll be wearing the little blue slippers. Come by and see me. Have a wonderful weekend,
