Yellow Brick Road

Instructions

I think this pattern is intended for fabrics that are more similar in colour but I had fun trying it with a mixed palette and I think it worked out.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Children

Style: Whimsical, Casual, Cute


Materials

A variety of cotton fabrics from my stash. The focal print was "Emma & Ethan Blue Bees" by Northcott which has cute little sunshines, kites and busy bees.

What was your inspiration?

Well I knew our friends had a little girl on the way and I knew that Dad didn't want anything too girly. Then it was a matter of choosing prints that reflect the best in life as my wish for her....sunshine, bright starry nights and of course flowers.

What are you most proud of?

My choice of colours and the overall improvement to my seams & binding. Also, Katie was only two months old when I finished her quilt-LOL.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Go for it! I had a great time with it.

Love the color choices. I think with the dark patches it keeps it from being too babyish so it will 'grow' with Katie :)
