    Default Blueberry Jumble Baby Quilt

    I whipped this baby quilt together out of scraps ( I need to borrow it back and take better pics, I got it done and in the wash at 2 am the day of the shower!) this week, and can share. I found out about the shower on Wed the 9th so this was a really fast quilt.


    I took the "Stacks" tutorial from Missouri Star, and trimmed down the sides closer to the stack to make it baby sized. It is about 52" by 50" long, I found the last strip on the floor under the couch, the cat stole i...t and I didn't realize it till too late. Just made of scraps from my stash in her nursery colors. Not technically pretty as I threw this together in just over a week of late nights, but the mom liked it and that is what counts. It has rainbows on the back.


    Despite using color catchers, some of the navy bled onto the pink, and we didn't notice it until everyone was looking up close after gifting. What should I tell her to wash it with to get it out?[ATTACH=CONFIG]579016[/ATTACH]

    As long as the mother liked it that is what matters.

    I made a blue & white lap quilt and while hand quilting the 2 colors rubbed together at certain points. I sprayed those areas good with a stain spray and put a color catcher while laundering. Some came out and lighted other areas. Good luck...
