Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Girls

Style: Traditional


Materials

cotton fabric, polester batting

What was your inspiration?

Every grand daughter gets a 'big girl' quilt when she turns 6 (last week for Bree), Bree is my color lover-part rainbow brite, part fancy nancy, Her very favorite color is yellow, i used scrap fabric from various other quilts i made and many outfits i made all 4 grand daughters

What are you most proud of?

I finally found a project to use the many templates I've collected over the years to do the hand quilting in the alternate block, that was a lot of fun!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

have your scraps sorted by color, it cuts down time with the 9 patch!

Your quilt is beautiful, and your hand quilting really compliments the pattern.

Thank you!, her room is yellow, so i wanted the color to be prominent. I knew it was a chance to break out some fancy templates!
