Scrapping’ baby quilts
 
4 Attachment(s)
I made the first one called Sweet Dreams for a friend’s first great grandbaby….and just kept using the scraps until gone and made the others…then pulled out my crayola crayon scraps from a precious baby quilt and made the last. No patterns except the sweet dreams. Good to have replenished my baby quilt inventory. I like having these on hand. Happy to share that all these scraps are gone!! Woohoo!

I always enjoy seeing what you do. I also always love the fabrics you use. These will make very nice baby gifts. I’ve been planning on making my cousin’s first great grandson a quilt but can’t decide on a pattern. I like your applique bears and giraffes. Either would make a nice quilt pattern for her great grandson. Thanks for showing us.

The teddy bear quilt has Minky backing…. I just used cute cotton fabric from my bolts for the backings on the others…butterfly’s, owls, and flowers…. With fabric pricing the way it is right now, I am all about scrapping…

Thank you! That 2nd one, Sewbiz, is great for your 2 1/2” squares for those in the birthday club. I have no pattern but here are the measurements for the centers..

4 1/2” sq with 1 1/2” snowball corners….bordered with 1 1/2” strips…..everything else is using 2 1/2” squares = 10 1/2” unfinished block size….then sashing strips and corner stones are
2 1/2”…. You can leave the corner stones out and just sash, too…which is super cute..

Great use of scraps and love the fabrics you have used. Beautifully quilted.

Thanks! We are always looking for more ways to play with 2.5" squares.
