Made for my Granddaughter’s Third Birthday – February 24
This one is a twin size for her big girl bed. The backing is made of red Minkie and is very snuggly. I made the background from scrappy lights.
This quilt was made with fabric purchased in 2010 in Paducah, KY.
DH and I went there and enjoyed every quilty minute.
I found a fabulous sale on Kona solids (remnants) at Hancocks of Paducah.
I bought it all.
I had a very interesting selection of fabric colors to work with.
That fabric inspired me to create a quilt to remember my fun visit.
Gerry from Burgundy, France sent in a photo of her quilt top.

This quilt was designed with the help of my blog visitors. You chose the blocks and the borders through participating in polls. I like the results.

I gave this quilt to a good friend.

If you ever need some uplifting and joy in your life you can get it from Melissa. She is a 30 yo ex-Univ. of Washington and professional basketball player who has been diagnosed with Lou Gehrigs disease (ALS).
I made her the quilt last year with help from my friends who donated fabric and helped with the sewing, quilting and label. These great friends are Kaylin Francis, Marie Chestnut and Michelle Brown. The fabric was donated by the Washington State Internet Quilters. She loves sharing her quilt with her kittie, Tommie (a girl).
To read more about Melissa you can check out her awesome blog. I am sure she would enjoy some visitors and comments.

Here is my quilt top. This is my version of Bonnie Hunter’s Double Delight Mystery Quilt with the new border pattern. It will be quilted soon and off to its new owner. I changed Bonnie’s block a little by replacing 4 of the cream triangles with pink triangles in the four corners. I used my Repro 30’s bubble gum pink baby print fabric.

I love how sweet this little quilt looks.

My good friend, Marie (http://chestnutsquilting.com/) , made this quilt for a baby that is on the way. She wanted smaller baby blocks and wanted it less than 44″ wide so she didn’t have to piece the back. The new block size is 11″ (the original is 16″). I love it. The grandmother died recently and the fabric is from her stash so this is a very sentimental quilt.

NOTE: Please download the Fabric Requirements again. I have modified them slightly.
Also.. after making my quilt I had a great lesson learned.
Buy 2 yards or meters of the fussy cut fabric.. it is much easier.
The pattern will work with one yard so if you already have your fabric it will still work.
I made mine with one yard since I didn’t feel like finding that fabric online (I bought it on vacation in Oregon a while back).
This quilt is available in one size:
Baby Quilt – 42” by 42”
Metric – 108 cm by 108 cm
I bought one yard of pirate fabric, found some coordinating fabric in my stash and challenged myself to make a baby quilt pattern.
This is a good pattern for fabric that has 8″ panels or has a border print like the pirate fabric that can be fussy cut.
