A bit of time in my sewing room this week allowed me to get this little quilt finished up. It started with a charm pack of low volume prints to which I added very small scraps.
The inspiration was from the book 'Imagine Quilts'. I just resized the block
For the quilting I did wavy lines in a light grey thread
The backing is a flannel I bought about 4 years ago. The colours were right for this : )
It's not a big quilt at all, but I figure some baby will like it eventually
One more so you can see what I woke up to yesterday---10" of snow!!!

Another gorgeous quilt just waiting for a wee li'l baby to cover! 'Tis always amazing to me what you can do with the humble 'scrap', Carla. Wow..10 inches of snow; it must be a glorious sight in your li'l corner of the world...if a wee bit chilly!

Very great idea for scraps and making a beautiful quilt! Love all of the neutrals!
This is so, so precious! Love the LV fabrics.
This is beautiful, your use of balance and colour works so well.
Very cute! So do you make baby quilts just to have on hand? It's a great way to get some quilting done, while also knowing that it will go to good use for a (future) baby. This turned out darling!

That is beautiful! I love it.
I love how it turned out! And quite gender neutral, always a plus in my book!
I love the splashes of red! This turned out great Carla - so cute :)
That has come together beautifully. The wavy lines were the perfect choice.
Cute quilt, but you can keep the snow.
What a darling quilt, Carla! I'm a pushover for a scrap quilt, and this one is so darned cute. You make me want to chuck all my need-to-do quilting and just go for something fun! The quilt photographs beautifully on the snow, but I bet it would look just as pretty below a palm tree!
This turned out soo cute! I love scrappy quilts and Of course a baby will love it - look at all the grown ups that love it! ;)
So cute. I like the wavy lines too.
Oh, I love this! How fun to just play with your scraps that way.
I really like this - scrappy is always my favourite!
So pretty! Scrappy quilts are my favorite.
I cannot tell you how much I adore this! It is perfection! You have amazing taste, Carla!
Love this!! And how wonderful to have a gorgeous gift in your stash!
Beautiful quilt Carla!! Love the happy scrappiness of it. Some baby will feel very loved cuddled under this one.
