Modern Baby Quilt Purples and Grays As Requested!
 
2 Attachment(s)
My daughter is having a baby girl next months, and chose to decorate this nursery in purples and grays. I thought it was a little weird, but managed to keep my mouth shut (unusual for me!!!) So I searched my stash for purples and lilacs, and had several grays and came up with this modern style quilt. There is a free tutorial for it on Pinterest, with a title of Square Baby Quilt. But beware, there were several errors in the directions. Several of the cutting lengths were wrong. Fortunately, I only cut strips for the first block and sewed it together and caught it before cutting the rest of the fabric. After that, I double checked everything before cutting and found a few more issues. But it is pretty simple, and got it together OK.

A very nice quilt, although I would never have thought of those colors for a nursery! To each his own, I suppose.

I like everything about it! The colors, blocks, piecing on the back and binding!

Nice design for the modern baby colors

Love the quilt and the quilting on it. Hmmm, maybe I am a bit of a baby? No, I think this pattern could be used to make a quilt for almost anyone depending on the fabric one uses. Thanks for the heads up on the pattern and the errors.

Gray seems to be the new theme in nurseries. My DDIL is expecting in March and got new gray nursery furniture. She is going with a nautical theme tho. But it is for a boy. I do love your quilt very pretty.

I love, love, love your baby quilt. Well done!

I really like that color combination in your baby quilt. I also like the very contemporary pattern. It is just perfect.

That is a very pretty quilt!

KenmoreGal2 01-11-2016 04:22 AM

I love all of your quilts Jeanne, this one too.

Skhf 01-11-2016 05:31 AM

Ybeautiful! I love the colors and fabrics you used. I think the Mom is on the right track with the colors. Very modern and soft. All nurseries do not need to be pink, yellow, or blue.

ManiacQuilter2 01-11-2016 06:03 AM

You made a lovely quilt and you were wise not say anything. I don't understand having gray in a nursery either. We are just getting old Jeanne! :)

Yes, you are right I think!! But I refuse to go gracefully!!:D:D

Very pretty quilt. I too like the traditional colors, but not my choice.

lynnie 01-11-2016 07:32 AM
