I've had the butterfly/bug fabric featured on the front for a quite a while, but was lacking inspiration until a friend of mine mentioned she needed a baby-quilt and the mother likes butterflies!
I did a large meandering background quilt pattern to keep the quilt soft and fluffy, but in each block, I outlined a theme.
The background is a girly floral/swirl flanelette.
I made this quilt a different shape from my regular baby quilts: it's 35" square instead of 30"x40", I think it might be a better shape, the jury's still out...
this is so cute. i love the placement of the random blocks on the solid. your quilting is always amazing. What machine do you use?

ReplyDeleteI love the colour choices here, not "baby" colours at all.
ReplyDeleteI do prefer the 30X40 as the squares always look a bit "boxy".
Good stuff.
I love this amazing quilt. hugs
