I'm wanting to do a baby quilt with the attached blocks. Any ideas on what pattern to use?
Thanks

Warm Wishes would work well. Cute blocks!

Thank You. I will look for the pattern.

Or you could use them as the centers of log cabin blocks.

How many do you have? If it is just the 2, I would find a pattern that you could do in 3 colours. I would perhaps do orange/off white and green/off white 5 inch pinwheel blocks and set them around the picture blocks.

No idea, those blocks are real cute.

Tartan 01-25-2014 06:15 PM

Opps, correction I meant to say orange/off white and BLUE/off white pinwheel blocks.:o

I personally love pinwheel blocks with baby quilts. You can make them around these or make a row quilt with pinwheels and these blocks depending how many you have.

Even a charm pack of baby prints would be cute. Just sew all the sqs. togather. Nice and simple.

How about x's and o's also known as kisses and hugs?

I did pictures (printed material) with a double Irish Chain once and it worked out fine.

I have no ideas about blocks other then what has been said but I would like to know the name of the print and I would love to see what you do with them.

You can find the pattern on Quilmaker's website. The pattern calls for 6" squares so if you decide to do it, you will need to alter the widths of the pieced blocks. You might want to make a sawtooth star (made from a set of 4 flying geese) and have them be the center of the block. With a 4.5" finished center, you will have 9" blocks. This was a charity quilt top I made.....

Cute blocks, you could team them up with matching blocks of border colors for 4 patches.
