Scrappy Baby Quilts Finished
I started these baby quilts back in February, and I finally got all three of them finished. On one of them, I quilted smaller patterns in the white blocks only, and on the other two, I did a large overall pattern. (The quilting is nothing to write home about, so I am not going to put close-ups. )
Scrappy baby quilts.
They were based on a baby quilt from KatyQuilts. I loved the simple design, and the way she incorporated gray and black into baby quilts.
This one has sections of color, and a large overall loopy quilting pattern to pick up the circles in the prints.
On this one, the colors are placed randomly, and the quilting is different in each of the white patches.
This one is my favorite. It is quilted in vertical wavy lines.
I especially love the black fabric with colorful circles, and I ordered lots more!
I had so much fun making them, and I have enough blocks left over for at least one more quilt. I am so glad that for once I finished a project the same year I started it!
One of the best things about our quilting community is how we inspire one another! The trio of quilts are so nice, and I’m sure each one will make someone happy! Nice finish for the week!
That is so true! I just wish I could quilt faster so I could get to more of those inspiring ideas! 🙂
I’m so proud of you! The quilts are great. Hope they go to someone that will love them and snuggle with them when it’s nap time. That’s what they are for – lovely comforting objects.
For once, I made them without a certain individual or charity in mind. It is nice to have a stash of finished quilts ready for whenever they are needed, though! Sometimes the girls have a friend who needs a quilt, and it’s nice to have enough that they can choose their favorite. 🙂
I do like that they are all bright colours and NOT pastels……but that is just me! Now, that black fabric with circles is spectacular!! I love circles in any size and ‘shape’ 🙂 Nice work, thanks for the nice display.
Oh, I know, I want to put that black fabric in everything! It was first printed in 2012 so I was glad to find out it was still available.
Your quilts are lovely.
Thank you! I am just so glad to actually finish something for a change!! 🙂
Thanks for making baby quilts that aren’t cutsey. Yours are very attractive, but not fussy, so I hope they will actually be used by their recipients rather than “saved.” And the colors will work whatever the baby’s gender.
Wavy lines are my favourite machine quilting pattern! The texture is great and you don’t need to mark the quilt before hand. I really like the contrast between the curves of the quilting and the straight lines of the quilt itself. Like everyone else, I think that black fabric is gorgeous and it was a great idea to get more. They’re all three lovely quilts, and will make their future owners very happy 🙂
Nice quilts! I like the simple design.
such fun quilts.
I agree with SnarkyQ–I really like that these are bold and fun, rather than simpering cute. And I like the yellow and green one best, too!
I like them all, you amaze me with how much you achieve.

Thank you, Chris!
Love the new all but the circle fabric gets an extra star. Johanna
Oohh, that warm tone quilt looks so cozy! All three are wonderful.
Thanks, I had so much fun with that pattern!
