I have had so much fun making another baby quilt! I haven't done one for ages, and they are so quick and small and delightful to do. This is draped over the footstool - I was having trouble taking a photo that showed the colours properly.
This is for a friend at work who is due in a few weeks. The baby is a girl, but I don't think they're going all crazy pink, so this is reasonably gender neutral.
Although I did quilt it with flowers.
I remember being eight months pregnant ... what a nightmare. Kind of cool in that you were actually growing a baby, but eight months is definitely the point at which you can't ignore it any more! Every time you try and do any damn thing - even sleeping - that baby is there. Galumphing from side to side and hiccuping.
Quick and easy. For you. I've just spent two evenings considering my next (cot) quilt and arithmetically working out how I need to do it. And then it'll take me a couple of months at least to do. Quick and easy forsooth....
ReplyDeleteI don't bother with arithmetic! if you look at the triangle border above, I've just cut it off in the middle of a triangle when it was too long :)
DeleteOh yes, I didn't notice. But I could easily do that, even with arithmetic. I'm basing my current attempt on something I saw sometime on the internet and have a blurry print of - obviously making it a completely different shape and using different fabrics and only realising the problems as I go along...
