Default Here are four...

The 9-Patch was made with small florals on black background. The white snowballs are tone on tone.
The next two were just simple 4-patches, but the light yellow squares worked a lot better than the green, I think. They would have looked good had I used white, but I try and stay away from white on kid quilts, thinking that they will show dirt easier. Anyone else feel this way?
The last one was fun to make, and has a dark red flat welt (flange) at the binding. I gave it to a friend who had suffered a broken leg.

All very nice! The last one is my favorite. I agree w/you about not using much white on baby quilts!

​Very pretty! I too tend to limit white in children's quilts.

Pretty quilts. I'm the same way with white in children's quilt. I usually don't use it.

Very nice...all of them...I don't often use white in a baby/child's quilt either...I love 9patch and snowball blocks together...especially when set on point.
