It was a free pattern from Henscratch Quilting called Buckeye Beauty. It is soooooo easy!!! You don't worry about color, instead concentrating on the values. It is the placement of the values that makes the quilt. I plan on making me one sometime later in 2010, but I'm going to try it with the 2-inch squares instead of the 2.5-inch squares. I want more stripes in mine. :wink:

Okay, they aren't the best pictures but here are a couple more I'm working on. The baby quilt is one of 4 I'm making of the same pattern. There really isn't a pattern. I just needed something quick and whipped this up. The panels make it really easy! I figured I would just post one picture instead of 4. Each one has a different color for the star and border, but the pattern and panels are identical.

The purple quilt is for a friend's 3 year old. She's pregnant and I am making her a baby quilt. I didn't make one for her daughter when she was born so I am making her one now. The picture is at a terrible angle so it doesn't look very large, but it'll measure out around 45x38 inches. She loves purple and I'm going to quilt flowers, butterflies, and lady bugs on it. I just am waiting until I finish FMQ all my Christmas projects in the hopes that I'll improve enough to be able to finish this. It needs to be sent off in February.
