I love making baby quilts. There, I said it. Bed size quilts may be more practical but little quilts are not only much quicker to get to the reward of completion but also experimenting with new techniques seems less risky. And I especially love making baby quilts when the recipient is my adorable grandson.
The pattern is Glitter and Glow Quilt by SuzyQuilts and was a joy to sew. My last visit to a fabric shop was in March when I picked up most of the fabrics for the quilt. It was my first time visiting Quilted Threads here in New Hampshire and then COVID hit. I look forward to returning as I was impressed with the shops mix of quilting and garment sewing fabrics. This quilt has a combination of quilting cottons and linens for extra textural interest.
Keep smiling!

Oh my, this is sure pretty! The colors are perfect for a boy, and that backing is spot-on. You did such a good job with it, and the addition of his name is the icing on the cake. I'm happy for you to have this finish, and that adorable baby!
ReplyDeleteA very nice Baby boy Quilt!
ReplyDeleteI also want to do the Glitter & Glow for a Baby quilt for a girl.
I wonder, what size your Baby Quilt has?
