I bought a charm pack called Darling Little Dickens from Gails Patchwork Emporium in January, along with a mint green fabric.
I was on a mission to make a quick, cute cot quilt for DH cousin who had baby daughter #2. Bub was early and we were going back to visit family in the same town in a matter of weeks, so I wanted to perform miracles.
The miracle of me staying focused on one project!
I decided (with advice from Lisa and Mum) that mint green sashing was not going to work. But good old white (from the stash) looks perfect.
Accompanied by a few left over charm squares cut down for cornerstones.
The mint worked better as a border.
One cute, quick baby quilt - made and delivered within a month!
Happy quilting Sue.
I managed a fancy quilting pattern on the border - with my walking foot. There was enough mint green fabric to bind the quilt.
Happy quilting Sue.
It's gorgeous Sue... and I love that range of fabric.
