I put together the top of this quilt last weekend from some random fabrics in my stash. It is just a very basic nine-patch Irish chain quilt, but I like how the blues and pinks came together. It is also small - perfectly sized for baby.
I have been wanting to try doing all-over quilting that does not follow the piecing for some time, and thought this could be a fun opportunity to try it. Plus, I used a flannel backing and was really going for a super-quilted look and feel. Plus it will help keep the stretchy flannel from getting misshapen through wear or washing.
My favorite part of this quilt, though, is the back. I absolutely love the print and feel of this fabric. It is so fun and bright, and the flannel makes you want to lay a baby down on it.
This should be a good addition to the nursery!
Very nicely done! And the quilting is fantastic - really adds to the design! :)
