Ok, I miss blogging about quilts and so I’m hoping to get back to talking about them here as they are made, rather than months later!
Anyway, this one I made for my brother’s new little baby. The VW camper van fabric was my starting point. I didn’t know if they were having a boy or girl, so I was going gender neutral.
When I can’t decide what quilt pattern to use, I always go patchwork squares because it always works…
The backing is Double Gauze, and it makes it so soft. The squares were 4″ I think.

This is Awesome!!! I think one of my favorites yet! How do you keep doing it? 🙂 I think maybe this is what I need to get my quilting mojo back– simple patchwork… Nothing like it!

Yay, so nice to see your blogpost! Love this quilt! I have a small scrap of the VW van fabric, I've just used it in a Farmer's Wife block. It's adorable fabric and a perfect starting point for a baby quilt!

Fantastic color choices, and yes, patchwork is my go to pattern as well. Also, a great scrap buster of your most favorite fabrics.

This looks so cozy!!! I'm currently making a patchwork squares baby quilt. What kind of batting did you use? Did you prewash your fabrics?

I love that backing fabric and noticed it looked so soft as you mentioned. I'll have to add that to my list of things to buy. 🙂 I always look forward to seeing your quilts. Thanks for sharing

What lovely colors, love the aquas and oranges and a touch of yellow. Those campers are so cute! Simple patchwork squares are my favorite for baby quilts,too.
Joy says
Love this! Question: do you see strips together and cut to make squares or cut out all the squares arrange,and sew?
Joy says
*sew
