a stroller quilt.

Just to prove that I am still making things, I thought I would stop in and show ya my latest... I love this quilt. It measures about 32x36,and is jam packed with bright and bold colors. It seems most the quilts that I make have very little rhyme or reason. I like it that way! This has been in my mind for a while, but I wanted to make a smaller baby quilt than the 45x60 standard crib quilt. It is the perfect size for tucking around a little one in a stroller or over the lap at story time. I am happy with the way that it turned out...

A cheerful backing....


an inspiring shot...this angle makes me want to make an orange, brown and green quilt!
I've got lots more to share so I will see y'all soon.
~happy sewing!

Oohh la la, I really love this quilt! Such a great way to use a variety of scrap pieces. I like the quilting you did on it too. Can't wait to see more of what you've been working on.

You're right; the last shot is a great photo. The quilt looks like a blanket of love to tuck around a happy baby.

I love this! I've never really made smaller quilts because I didn't know what to do with them, but a stroller quilt is a great idea.

I love this quilt. In fact, I love it so much that it inspired me to make my first quilt.
