Rainbow Chevron
 

My SIL asked me to make a quilt for her daughter who was pregnant and the were not going to find out the sex of the baby. I was so excited and I went out and bought all these beautiful; bright colours. Then I spoke to the SIL and she told me that her daughter wanted a neutral quilt, well I said a rainbow can be for either a boy or girl. No she said, DD wants whites, creams, beige, neutral (BLAH) anyway I finished that one, didn't take a photo, I have never worked on such a boring project and hopefully will never again.
Anyway I was left with all these fabrics, so when another niece fell pregnant I thought I would make it for her. So here it is, I backed it in minky and it is bigger than most baby quilts but it will be a great size for a toddler.

Love it! The bright colors are perfect!

Beautiful colors, perfect.

Fabulous! I am also working on a baby quilt for a coworker. She knows she is having a girl and I too chose super bright saturated colors like you did. I love your bright rainbow chevron quilt.

the baby will love the bright colors. babies can't see those horrible neutrals. I love your quilt. so bright and lively. I did my son's room in rainbows and clouds. he loved it. so did i.

very nicely done

I don't understand the neutral thing either...this is beautiful!

Excellent!!! I'm not usually into brights but your quilt is fabulous. Great job!

Beautiful!!!! I love rainbows! My DM and I did my DGS's nursery (21 yrs ago) in the rainbow zebra complete fabric line!

Love the rainbow!!

beautiful, bright and cheery but I have never heard "fell pregnant" before. That is so funny.

very awesome

What a pretty quilt! I had to make a gray quilt for a baby. That's all the mother wanted - - gray. It was pretty boring. I dressed it up with some different quilting in the different gray sections.

Wonderful. I like neutrals, but not for a baby. The colorful quilt is more visually stimulating for an infant.

Very kool. Love it. BrendaK

I know exactly what you mean. My gd wanted a baby quilt done in light blues and grey (chevron); probably most boring quilt I have ever made too. But, she liked it and that's what matters. Like the brights in your quilt.

Great quilt! Love the colors - this is the best chevron quilt I've seen.

I like this one much better and never saw the neutral one...but brights are sooo much happier!

very nice quilt

I absolutely love it! Babies and toddlers love colors so this will be well loved I am sure!

These are really great colors for a baby!

great brightness.

This is a great, cheerful, quilt! Love the binding fabric.

Love your bright beautiful rainbow of colors. Baby will too.

Beautiful quilt and the colors are so nice and bright.

It's stunning. I love all the bright colors.

bright and happy. Babies like bright colors. Your daughter will have no problem getting that baby to sleep with the "boring quilt" you made for her.

Great rainbow colours. Nicely done.

I can't help but think of Charlie brown when I see this it makes me happy. I love bright bold colors and your rainbow is of color is amazing. For the most part chevrons are not my thing but I really like this quilt it just makes me smile.
