Need ideas for a baby girl quilt
 

When my daughters friend have a bay I make the new baby a quilt. I think I have made about about 6-7 quilt for boys but this friend is having a GIRL! I'm looking for ideas for quilt that are girlie, show me your pictures please. Or just ideas too.

Lots of cute girl fabrics out there. Do you know what colors she wants? I have seen winnie-the-pooh fabrics, butterfly fabrics, fairy fabrics. And they are not only in just pink, but purples, yellows, greens. There is lots to choose from.

I made a Bento Box quilt in fabrics from the Robert Kaufman Roses collection. I used the pink paisley, a cream that has taupe roses on it, a cream that has pink roses and green leaves, and a green paisley. Then I quilted it in hearts and leaves.

Don't know yet what fabrics just looking for fun ideas at this point.

This one is on my future project list and it's a good design for a little girl to grow into.

I have a problem doing pink and floral fabrics, so I would just do fabrics that might appeal to girls (some suggested above). I would think about a tumbling blocks in purples.

One of my favorites is Spring Splash from McCall's Quilts - its a free pattern - very quick and easy.

I love the pinwheel and have always wanted to make it. I was also thinking of something with circles. Thanks for the ideas!

Warm Wishes is a good simple pattern, just use girly prints and colors.

I had the opposite problem. I have a baby quilt made, but everyone says it's kind of girly. I tried to make it neutral and used teal, green, and yellow for the blocks. Got an invitation to a baby shower for my cousin's son and wouldn't you know it, they are having a boy. Wow, good excuse to buy blue fabric. Had an awful time finding a pattern, and got the fabrics on Friday. I needed a very simple pattern since the shower is March 16. Their "theme" is pirates, and very few patterns fit the bill for that pattern. I have the center panel finished, and just have to add 2 or 3 borders. I think I will make the deadline, but don't like having to rush. Wish me luck.

If the mom isn't excited about a really pink quilt I did one with some adorable fabric I found at Joanne's. It has a green background with butterflies and lady bugs and the words "girl bugs". Very feminine without screaming pink!

here's a pic of what I like to do for a girl. it goes together really fast. You can leave the picture out and the 'B' doesn't have to be there either.

And another: This one is really fast, just four ohio star blocks. Float them so you don't have to worry about the points and add a couple of borders. Done and cute!

Yeah! it worked. This is a drunkards path pattern. Quick and easy. Add a pretty lace on the edge and You have a girly quilt! I used polkadots. Quilted it with a rose bud motif.
