I can finally share my latest baby quilt! This is yet another quilt, I made with the help of the lovely ladies of the Quilty Circle of Bees. The block we sewed is called the 'Rocky Mountain Puzzle' block and I picked turquoise, pink and curry/chartreuse as the main colours and white and black/white fabrics for the background. It's always a nice surprise when you open the envelopes from your bee mates and see what blocks they made since we sew with our own fabrics. It gives the quilt such a great variety of different fabrics without looking completely wild and uncoordinated. I made three blocks, my bee mates made all the other ones. I loved how it turned out, it's such a happy and fresh looking quilt! For the binding I used left over strips from a backing of another quilt. This print has large dots, so the binding appears to be stripy - and I like that a lot. As always with baby quilts, I sew the binding on by machine for extra durability. For the backing I used my favourite wide screen cross-hatch fabric in pink. In the bottom right corner is a label, made from one HST. This quilt was sent earlier this week to Robin and her parents, who live in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Yesterday I received such sweet photos from Robin with the quilt... seriously, sewing a baby quilt is just the best! The quilt measures about 48" (123cm) square. Thank you to me bee mates Melanie, Allison, Madga and Saadia for making the blocks!
Combining two of my favorite things. The classic log cabin block and scraps. If you've got scrappy strips this tutorial is for you.
