Scrappy baby quilts

Today is a departure from the details of assembly and instead, share how I am convinced that "Baby Quilts aren't just for Babies ... they're for everyone!"

This next project I want to share with you is such a great scrapbuster! I saw a quilt like it at my friend's mother's house and knew it would be such a fun project so I just had to make one too! Here's a brief description of how to make this beginner-friendly quilt: 1. Gather a bunch of 4-1/2" wide scraps (they can be any length you want). I cut mine anywhere from 1-1/2" to about 5-6" in length. 2. Sew them into one long strip. Press the seam allowances open. 3. Cut that strip into 4-1/2"…

is finished. I decided to try and baste this little quilt on my design wall, which turned out to be quite successful! I used some 9 patch blocks that I had sitting on the drawer for a zillion years for the backing. It saved me buying fabric, and used up MORE stuff. I pieced this quilt, using one of the new methods I read about online. I joined 4 squares together...a 4 patch. I made two of these, the placed them right sides together. I sewed around the 4 edges, then cut diagonally through…

40 x 50 This cute top was pieced by my son! While he likes to sew, it usually takes him a long time to make a top. I remind him once in a while to sew a row or two or do some ironing. His sewing skills are improving a lot. Most of his points match! I gave it a larger meander than normal. Muscle memory made this a little more challenging! I kept wanting to make it smaller.
