Hello there,

Sorry I've been gone, I was on vacation in San Diego and Mexico. But I'm back and on to my next quilting project.

So I'm making a baby quilt for a friend of mine who is having a baby girl. She doesn't like the traditional pink and cute type of thing. So I eneded up going to local quilt shop hoping to get a better selection of fabric. First of all the prices per yard made me want to bolt screaming from the place...but the fabric WAS very nice and I ended up finding some I really liked.

The down side was...they no longer had it on the bolt...it was all precut and put together in kits. So I ended up buying a kit that came with 11 different fabrics cut into 7 inch squares - 6 pieces per fabric, it also came with the binding.

So my question is, anyone have a quilt pattern that might make it more intersting than a regular square quilt? And also...there wasn't any ditinquishing marks on the fabric, but if I posted a pic think someone might know where I could get fabric for the backing?

Sorry for the long post, and as always...thanks for your help!
