pinwheel baby quilt




Here's a sweet little quilt that I made for a friend of mine from high school who is expecting a boy this October. I knew that she was using traditional colors in her baby's room, so I went with baby blue and navy for this quilt.





The blocks are 4" square after sewing and the sashing is 4" wide. The final quilt is 28" x 48".




I am starting to get spoiled making smaller doll quilts and baby quilts. It's so satisfying to be able to finish up a quilt in a few hours...maybe I'm getting quilting ADD?!

    Love the color combo on this one. Super cute! I think that is why I make so many baby quilts, cause they are fast and so rewarding...and so cute!

    Beautiful and classic. Nothing wrong with a little ADD quilting! Do you know what that backing fabric is? It's perfect for so many things!

    Haha. Quilting ADD. I have general crafting ADD.
    That quilt is beautiful! Especially the circular fabric. It is a little adult boy quilt.

    I love the backing, very cool!! I need more friends having babies, so I can make some small quilts. It does seem like it would be fun to get one done so much faster.

    You are so prolific! I can't believe how much quilting you get done. I LOVE the C and B quilt, I had my eye on it too and the same thoughts.
