Default A Granny Squares quilt for my oldest and a simple quilt for me

For my oldest little girl, I made a "granny squares" quilt from Riley Blake Lost and Found sparkly fabric. She wanted it reversible with a purple back.

I made this one for me, I love brightly colored patchwork. It's Anna Maria Horner LouLouThi fabrics.

I used a vintage sari from the thrift store to back it. It is super soft and silky:
