Blogger's Quilt Festival



Here is my Bloggers Quilt festival Entry. This is a baby quilt measuring 39"X54". I always like to make my baby quilts a little big so there is room to grow through the toddler years.

I used Elizabeth Hartman's free pattern Crazy Nine-Patch Lattice. I also used all DS prints. I don't normally use pre-cuts, but this would be a great pattern to use a layer cake with!!



I love the back! This is the first time I have tried a curved corner on a quilt! How EASY!!!! And I love that the corners won't poke the baby. I think all future baby quilts will be made this way;)


I used Leah Day's Circuit Board design. I quilted it quite big for maximum baby softness:)

This is one of 2 quilts I made for my sister-in -law. May 16, 2013 (YESTERDAY)she gave birth to 2 bouncing baby girls, Emma and Lillian.

Aren't my new Nieces cute, hilarious, awesome?? These first pictures are showing a lot of personality!!!!Emma got this quilt, and Lillian got a simple brick pattern quilt with some AWESOME fabrics!!!!!

Now, off to check out Blogger Festival Quilts!!

    Congratulations on the birth of your nieces! I'd have loved to have received a quilt like that when my babies were born :)

    Your quilt looks great. Great fabrics to use in that design. And the twins are totally gorgeous. So pleased they turned up in time for the festival.

    I love the slightly wavy lines of the quilting - to me they give it a handmade, vintage look. I did not know about Leah Day and popped over to see her site. I think I have found my next direction in improving my quilting! Thank you!
