I've been working on this custom order for the past few weeks, and it's finished ... just in time for a baby shower to welcome a sweet baby!
I'm so pleased with how it turned out, especially since I was working from a mental picture rather than a pattern. Here's the back that I pieced from the leftover fabrics:
I used 1/2 yard of four different fabrics (the blocks on the front) and about 1 yard of yellow (I used two different yellows which may or may not show up in the picture). The front blocks are 4.5"x8.5", the sashing in between is 1.5" wide, and the border is 2.5" wide. I used standard 2.5" strips for the binding, piecing together all the different fabrics to get enough. Now ... you can make your own!
I had just enough fabric left over to make a my favorite little bird toy to go with this Pink Path baby quilt. And of course, not wanting to waste anything, I stuffed it with the fabric bits leftover from the quilt!
You could say I'm tickled pink.
It is beautiful! Absolutely perfect. My sister is going to LOVE it. I love the baby bird.
