A quick and simple baby quilt made from half of an Up Parasol jelly roll, purchased at Mad About Patchwork. This jelly roll was an impulse purchase, and wouldn’t you know I end up loving this fabric line!
I don’t know why I’m surprised, as I’ve always loved Heather Bailey’s fabrics in the past. The bright summery feel is so fun to sew with.
I had this leftover piece of lime green minky kicking around, so I used it as the backing. I’m allergic to quilting with minky because it’s a bit tricky at times, so I did minimal quilting. This works out well in the end as it’s a very soft and squishy quilt now!
p.s. I only used half the jelly roll for this little quilt (it’s about 36″ square) so I have enough to make another just like it, or I could have made it twice as big.
Lovely quilt – the fabric is so pretty.
Wonderful quilt – looks so soft! Did you use batting too?
It's so beautiful!
"Allergic to quilting with minky…." YESSSSS!!!!!!! This is me!!! Thanks for the chuckle. I always love seeing your quilts.
Very sweet quilt! I love that green so much!
Aha, you use bumpers on your crib too! Ok, so I'm not the only one who still thinks they're useful. =) Glad to know that.
This is such a gorgeous line, and the herringbone showcases it so nicely. I love the simple quilting and the Minky back 🙂
adorable!!!
Love the quilt design, such a great idea and also getting 2 quilts from one jelly roll is fab. x
This is one of my favorite patterns – looks beautiful with the Up Parasol fabrics!
Very pretty quilt, I love the colors and the soft backing.
I know what you mean about sewing with bright summery fabrics – certainly boosts the joy of sewing factor. Perfect block for that fabric.
It's very cute! Pretty fabrics and a perfect backing
Lovely color combo! 😉
What a gorgeous, 'fresh', pretty quilt!
I'm a new quilter and I just bought this fabric in fat quarters. I'm wondering where you found the complementary solid fabric. Thanks so much! LOVE this gorgeous quilt!
