There were orphan blocks from a Basket Weave quilt...and when I bought a panel of nursery rhyme characters I knew the colors were a perfect match (well, I thought so). I had to add borders to the panel squares to make it work, but that gave me the chance to add more blue. It's a perfect 48" square. I am totally delighted with this little quilt. It's not going up for sale--after it's finished it's going onto the guest bed, to stay safely under the bedspread until a grandchild shows up--no matter how long it takes. :wink:
I'm not adding a border; the binding will be in green. I have to think about how to quilt it. I couldn't decide which photo was better, so I'll post both. [ATTACH=CONFIG]51498[/ATTACH] |

VERY NICE! I have the kit that came out for that panel that I got a year or so ago. It's all washed and ready to make up. I love it too. I'll post a pic when I finally get it done. Sandra

That is so cute,

Oh yes--Sandra--post yours! It's fun to see different things done with blocks.
And I don't want a grandbaby TOO soon... the wedding is in July...so they need 3-4 years at least to enjoy being newlyweds. And Mark and I are enjoying our between years. :wink: A friend wants to buy another baby quilt, so I need to get busy so she has a choice! |
Awww :P :P
|
That is so lovely!!.. I just love bright colors for kids.
|
Don't you just LOVE IT when things go together SO perfectly!
It is marvelous! |
It's a perfect baby quilt.
|
I think it is just awesome! Really Pops with color! Great job!
|
I love how you came up with the idea to frame the nursery rhyme blocks in blue, to go w the pink. I can do that on ppr at home, but it's hard in the fabric store sometimes.
|
Very cute! I love those nursery rhyme blocks.
|
That is so cute!
|
That is so pretty, I love the colors. Hope you don't have to wait too long for a grandchild; If I'd known how great grandchildren are, I'd have skipped the kids and gone straight to the grandkids! LOL
|
I too bought these blocks to do a quilt - I love what you did with it. The orphan blocks look fantastic with them. I will post mine when I have completed my top.

Cute!! They look perfect together!!
|
Well--Terri--they'll be 28 at their five year reunion, so that's in plenty of time. :wink: I want them to be financially ready--it saves on stress. And I want to be closer to retirement so I can babysit!! :-D
|
I love it!
|
I love it! And I had to go from panel to panel and recite each rhyme. Does that date me? LOL
|
It's wonderful and future grandkid is very lucky!
