So I finally finished a quilt for
100 Quilts for Kids, a charity quilt project led by Katie of
Swim, Bike, Quilt. It's a simple little design,
Sweet Baby Girlie Charm Square Quilt by Elizabeth of
Don't Call Me Betsy. What drew me was that in addition to some neutral fabric, it used just 1 charm pack, which is basically what I had of "Meet the Gang". (Thanks,
Kate!)
Piecing blocks was a snap, as was the wavy stitched grid I quilted.
A wonderfully coordinating binding stripe was waiting in my stash - just the right mix of colors from Woodland Trails by
Sheri Berry Designs.
This quilt finished somewhat smaller than I expected (about 40" square), but is just the perfect size for a toddler to drag along. I'll be donating it to my local
Project Linus chapter.
Also on the finished list are a couple of sweet drool bibs for my friend
Toni, who just had a precious little baby girl. I tried a new pattern,
Little Baby Bibs by
Clover & Violet. This tutorial was fun to do up with scraps and some organic quilting. Hoping baby Jillian can make good use of them!
