Default Half Chevron Baby Quilt

Recently, RainyBC posted a quilt, but didn't remember the name of the pattern or where it came from. I needed a quick baby quilt for a co-worker and decided to make one. I'm calling it a "Half Chevron" quilt because I don't know what else to call it.

The backing is a bright red baby corduroy with white polka dots. It washed up very soft. You can see it as the binding as I tend to self-bind baby quilts.

I really like this quilt. It is busy but not too busy. It is fun for a baby and should keep a tot busy for many hours.

Oh - about the polka dots - my wife and I went to a quilt show recently and one of the vendors was displaying a baby quilt made of pinwheels. Each pinwheel was a bright color with white polka dots. And the vendor had a basket under the hanging baby quilt filled with fat quarters of all the polka dot fabric. I liked the look of it, but I don't really care for pinwheels. So when I saw this pattern, I thought "Bingo!"

I really like your version of this quilt, and the name you have given it. Your co-worker is sure to love this bright, cheerful little quilt. Nice job! Now I want to make another one.
