I made this quilt for my nephew and his wife who is having a baby girl in November! I made it with one Layer Cake from Moda and added ribbons to make it a tabby blanket !

Your baby quilt is so pretty. I can just see a baby pulling and tugging on each one of those ribbons. Nice job!

Very, very pretty baby quilt! Adding the ribbon tabs was a wonderful idea for the little one.

I have never heard of a Tabby quilt... but I love the the ribbons on the pinwheels, I am going to have a Great grandson in Aug. and I think I am going to make a Tabby Quilt... Is that the real name for it?

My July 4th project
 
Well there is a company that makes tabby things for babies in which they put all colors and textures of ribbons --- so I took the idea from them. -- I have made tons of receiving blankets using the ribbons. I use 1 yard of cotton and 1 yard of flannel I square them up right side together then while sewing around the outside edges I place ribbons ever so often ( be sure the ribbons are inside the blanket --- leaving a opening of about 3 or 4 inches. So you can turn inside out then I stitch twice origins the outer edge this looks great and secures the ribbons ! Then I sew cotton thread to tie the blanket together ! This makes a really nice summer blanket for baby and they LOVE the feel of the ribbon! Sure hope I did not bore you !

Very nice, I like the tabs.

Caswews 07-08-2014 06:15 AM

What a unique idea for sure !!! Thanks for sharing

roserips 07-08-2014 07:38 AM

Very interesting how you added the ribbons and texture would also make a great fidget quilt.

IBQUILTIN 07-08-2014 09:11 AM

Very sweet. Baby and Mom both should love that one
