Instructions

Just make sure that you use a quarter inch seam allowance and to square up the block after piecing it together.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Children

Style: Traditional


Materials

I used batiks throughout the quilt.

What was your inspiration?

I made this quilt for a niece who is expecting her first child..a little boy due in December.

What are you most proud of?

I'm proud to have finished the quilt and it turned very nicely.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

My advice is to go slowly allowing plenty of time to check your quarter in seam allowances and to square your blocks as you create them. I found a very easy pattern to follow.

Beautiful! I am just getting back into this course - I needed to make something to quilt and I have been busy with work the last few months. I want to get something like this done - that I can quilt without too much problem. Your quilt came out really nice! Congratulations on finishing a quilt from start to finish. I am hoping I will be able to post a picture soon of my project.
