Another baby quilt


While looking through a quilt magazine, I saw a double 4 patch quilt that I really liked. I knew that I had a lot of 4 patches already made so I decided to see how many I had that could be used for a small quilt. I had enough without making more so I gave thought to using novelty fabrics. When I went to the cabinet to look for novelties, I found that I had 6 1/2" pieces already cut. Now all I needed was some red/brown squares. This was a quick cutting job and I was ready to begin piecing. This would be another baby size quilt with fleece backing. I once again used the scallop edging on the fold over binding. This just became my favorite way to finish a baby quilt.

This quilt finishes at 36" x 42".
