This quilt is basically a log cabin construction. I used wide strips of minkee and very narrow strips of a striped fabric that had all the colors the mommy-to-be liked. She says it is her favorite baby quilt!

If so, is there anything I should know before I embark on such a project? If not, what do you think? Can it be done?

I fell yesterday and broke my leg so I'm laid up on the sofa in a boot with a walker at my side!@#$% so I may just have too much thinking time on my hands.
