Madison's Quilt - A Baby Quilt Finish

on
Friends of ours had a sweet baby girl right beforeChristmas.  I knew I needed to make aquilt for her, but with the Holidays and work, I wasn’t able to get started onit until late in January.  By then, Iwanted to make something quick and easy, but wasn’t sure what pattern or fabricto use.

That’s when I noticed a Marmalade (by Bonnie & Camille)layer cake sitting on my cutting table. I had taken the stack of fabric out of my stash because I was planningto make the Scrappy Tiles pattern by Cheryl Brickey of Meadow Mist Designs wayback in the Fall.

I started cutting the fabric almost immediately and before Iknew it, I had a baby quilt top all pieced and ready for quilting.  If you're looking for a fun, fast and easy pattern that would look good with any fabric, I highly recommend Cheryl's pattern.  To purchase your copy, just click on the link above.




 
The quilting was quick and easy – a big meandering stitchwhich kept the quilt nice and soft. For the binding, I chose a beautiful aqua dots fabric from the Vintage Modern collection which goes reallywell with the colours in the Marmalade fabric.




 
Now I just need to wash and dry it and deliver it to the newparents!

    That did turn out really pretty! I have a baby quilt to do too but not sure what the mom wants yet so doing a bunch of other things while I stew on it.

    What a pretty quilt, Izzy! I was never a huge fan of this line of fabric but seeing it in your quilt had totally changed my mind! I love the pops of orange in the quilt. It will be much loved I'm sure!!!! Great finish!
