As you know, I just made a quilt for my cousin Susan’s baby out of some lovely Fanfare flannels from Cloud 9. Because of the pieces required for the pattern, I needed to size up a lot of the yardage I bought. This gave me a fair amount of leftover flannel with no home. My solution? Make a second blanket. This one uses no pattern, just improvisational piecing.
Backing and binding for this quilt are in aqua Painters Canvas by Laura Gunn for Michael Miller. The quilting for this project is simple straight lines, stitch-in-the-ditch, with varied spacing.
Overall, I’m very happy with how this quilt came out. No kid to give it to yet, but I love it.
Andrea, I love it! You did an amazing job and I love all the prints you used. I wish I had the patience to quilt because this would be a great way to use up all the flannel I own. 🙂
I think you can do it. I find quilting to be much easier than making clothes. Of course, I started with quilts, not clothes.
Rae knocked it out of the park with the fabric, and you really paired up the line with the backing well. Love the simplicity of it!
Thanks Natasha! Now if it only wasn’t weird that I want to keep this one for myself. #BabyPrints
