Baby Quilt and Matching Bag
 

My husband works at our local courthouse 2 days a week. There is a very nice young lady there that has been very helpful to him that is expecting early in the spring. I did the math for yardages and how many blocks I would need and once again my math skills failed me...sigh... cut too many blocks and had yardage left over. I did however manage to make it a 'happy mistake' by making a matching bag to go with the quilt. I did put in a removeable rigid bottom so the bag will stand up. It was actually fun to design the bag from scraps.

Love the bright colors! Awesome job!

I bet she will be thrilled. Love the colors and the bag is great!

What a pretty quilt, and only a mother would think of all of the things you did for the bag. Lovely and bright for an infant, and reversible. Glad I don't need one, but would go to you to make it for me. Great job.

That is a spectacular quilt and bag.

Wonderful quilt and bag-will be much appreciated!

Very cute and that bag will come in very handy for the new Mom.

Very nice quilt and bag. She will enjoy them.

Wow you really did get a lot of fabrics but used them all up wonderfully!!!

Veru nice quilt and bag...I love them both. Love the quilting

Excellent set!! Love the bright colors and the awesome quilting!! The quilt is two for one with the pretty back!

Your quilt is beautiful and the bag is just amazing. Did you put a zipper in the top or a fold over effect? Just lovely!

Did you use a certain pattern? That is lovely.

I would be hard pressed to pick my favorite!!! I like the back of the quilt as well as the front and the bag is awesome too!!!

Actually I sort of went by one I saw on this board. I did not have a pattern, but it is a pretty simple design.

Terrific!!!!! I love the bright colors.

Oh man this is excellent. The tote bag is out of this world won't she be excited to receive these gifts. You out did yourself.

I agree. Thanks for sharing.

That is a lovely quilt and I love the idea of making a bag to go with it.

I can't tell you how much I LOVE this quilt and the bag. very very nice.

There are no mistakes---just more creative opportunities! Great gift and I'm sure she'll get lots of mileage out of the quilt and the bag. Thanks for sharing such a creative idea.

Very nice.

Love the bright colors in this quilt and bag. You can never, in my opinion, have too many quilts or bags when you have a baby. It's always nice to have an extra one packed if you need it in a hurry. I'm sure she will use both of these.

What a nice gift! A beautiful reversible qult and matching bag. I love what you've done.

Really awesome quilt and bag. You are very talented!

You did a wonderful job on both projects! Mother and baby are going to love them.

Love the idea of making a matching bag. Great quilt, bag & quilting!

love the coordinating quilt and bag. you did a beautiful job quilting.

Super cool way to use up the remaining fabric--great job.

Love them both. She will be thrilled.
