Lucky Hearts Baby Quilt COMPLETE from Wedding Dress Blue

A coworker is having a baby soon. When asked about a quilt she said that she liked teal-aqua and the room would have a farm animal theme, “You know, like elephants!” I am not sure how many elephants the average farm (outside of Asia) has, but this quilt does have them.

The block is a modified version of Scrappy Log Cabin Heart block. It is a great pattern and highly recommended.

Because of the elephants, I selected a quilting design with that theme. AND, because I am super lucky, found fabric in my stash that has both the right colors ...

10+ Darling Baby Quilts For Girls from Patchwork Posse

There is something so special about sewing up a baby quilt, especially when I get to play with the bright colors and fun patterns often found in quilts for girls. Baby quilts are the best, and when it’s a project for a girl, it’s a double winner for me! Let’s face it—girls always make a bigger deal about snuggling and loving their blankies (though I’ve definitely had a blankie-lover boy in my house too!).

Whether you are looking to try a brand-new technique or just need a quick “get it done before the shower” project ...

Baby Quilt c. 1947 from Wedding Dress Blue

While visiting my parents in rural Colorado, my mother decided to go through her cedar chest.

Among other treasures, I saw for the first time, her baby quilt, made for her by her Grandmother.

This is the same woman responsible for the blocks in the BUTTERFLY QUILT.

While the quilt shows its age, the workmanship still shines through.

Aidan from Sew Preeti Quilts

Meet Aidan!


Green Stars

I made a baby quilt (don't know the baby's name) 

Starting here

I have not met the mother (unless you count meeting on Teams)

Design Wall


So when Lina (not her real name) mentioned that she was going on maternity leave, I asked her if there was color/theme to the nursery.


Striped Binding


Green and Dinosaurs, Lina replied. And THAT was enough :-D 

Dinosaur Centers


I found loads of cute green fabrics in my stash. I love that gnome fabric, which I got from the last Quiltcon.

Many cute fabrics

MINI TUTORIAL: Fringe Benefit Block from Wedding Dress Blue

Looking for a way to use up surplus Half Square Triangles (HST)? This might be just the thing you are looking for. Gather up all the HST you have laying around, pick a size, add some low volume scraps, and, before you know it, you have a beautiful quilt to share.

I built my quilt without sashing, and the quilt sizes below assume that. You will likely come up with variations, and I would love to see them all.

NOTE: The quilt above is a 2-1/2″ HST variation using 36 blocks and finishing at 72″x72″.

Good Idea. Poor Execution. from Wedding Dress Blue

I had seen something similar (without a pattern I could identify) on Pinterest . It turned out to be a good idea that didn’t work.

I am very pleased with the solid flying geese blocks. But, the background…If it had all been the flowers, or the other bright print. But, mixing the two with some leftover scraps…Not successful.

That said, I am going to try again with a single print. The idea deserves a second chance.

ps–I have been calling it the Ugly Geese Quilt, which isn’t fair, because the geese aren’t ugly at all.

Chicken Baby COMPLETE from Wedding Dress Blue

In a scrap bag were small pieces of some super cute farm fabric–chickens, sunflowers and text. They aren’t the kind of prints where cutting them smaller would be a good solution. But they could be combined with something else.

I added the gold geometric print in the 4-1/2″ squares and built 4-patchesout of 2-1/2″ squares using coordinating fabrics.

I even had some matching sunflower fabric for the back.

It is even cuter in person, but this at least gives you an idea. Cheap and cheerful, but it will go in the donation pile for next year ...

It’s My Jam Baby Quilt COMPLETE from Wedding Dress Blue

I have managed to finish a project, only six weeks after our newest granddaughter was born. It is based on the pattern Christmas Jam Place Mats from the Winter 2025 Issue of Quilter’s World magazine.

My blocks are 8″ square. It seemed like such a great idea, until I realized that the finished project would have over 900 pieces. In a baby quilt. But, it was too late…I really wanted to see the finished product. So, I carried on.

You may notice that each fabric appears only one time, including the yellow star centers. I tried to pick ...

2025 Baby Quilt from Wendy's Quilts and More

My nephew and his wife have just had a baby girl so I decided to make a quilt for their new baby.  


I chose the Charlotte Quilt pattern by Erica Jackman of Kitchen Table Quilting because I had seen a few quilts made from it at the Great New Zealand Quilt Show in Christchurch and I was keen to try it myself.


The pattern can be made in a random fashion, or a carefully planned out version and of course I chose the more complication version.  I managed to get the strips weaving correctly on this baby sized quilt, but ...

Wedding Quilt COMPLETE from Wedding Dress Blue

Young Son is getting married the end of September. She is a lovely young woman, and we are very pleased for them both. And, of course, the occasion calls for a quilt!

This is based on the CLEO Pattern . I did resize the blocks smaller, and I do love the look. Sort of modern/abstract. Or maybe just busy. Either way, it is done now… It is super scrappy with around 250 different green, brown, gold and cream fabrics.

Don’t you LOVE the gold thread in the quilting. (Thank you, Jennifer!)

We wish them a lifetime wrapped in quilty ...

Kindness Quilt: A gift for a new little blessing from Carried Away Quilting

In 2020 I joined a mystery sew along hosted by Sweet Treasures Quilts called the Kindness Project. The goal was to make a quilt and gift it to someone affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. I finished my quilt top and then tucked it away . . . pondering who to gift it to.  I knew the answer would come to my heart, and it did.

I am taking a little license with my choice, but I think you will understand why.  It goes without saying that 2020 was a difficult, sad and challenging year for so many people. But one miraculous blessing came ...

Vintage Hankies Baby Quilt Pattern – Use Your Grandma’s Hankies from Patchwork Posse

Learn how to turn your wonderful collection of vintage hankies or even your grandma’s hankies into a quilt. If you want it larger than a baby quilt, simple – just sew more blocks.

Each block features four large squares of one hankie. You can even use hankies that have crochet edges, embroidered flowers and different colors.

The backing fabric can show through just a tiny bit – so make sure that’s a beautiful fabric as well.

For a while I was a big vintage hankie and fabric collector. I love, love that kind of stuff! I have more than enough ...

Cute Baby Quilt from The Quilt Yarn

Must be the baby season! Had to quickly finish another baby quilt for a friend of my daughter's. Chose this cute teddy bear panel from Devonstone Collection (design #DV6130) to quickly quilt a clamshell design over it. Then had to hunt around for a suitable backing...as the colours are somewhat washed out I thought that this would be challenging but found something straight away which fitted it perfectly.



Too cute! quilted it with my trusted Aurifil thread 50/2 in a soft yellow colour. Was lucky as I also found a solid in the same colour as the ...
