I had my monthly Bitch and Stitch Quilting group on Saturday, 5 hours of uninterrupted sewing thank you very much. Well uninterrupted except for the husband ringing to ask if lamb roast was okay for tea? Yes dear, that would be lovely, now I am hanging up because I have sewing to do!
I was a bit unsure of what to sew the night before when I was packing up all my stuff. So I pulled out these pink fabrics and thought I would just make up some square in square blocks like this
quilt. I hadn't cut into my Denyse Schmidt
since it arrived back in April. It was time, I was ready.
So Saturday I finished all these blocks. I had a rough idea of doing 4 rows of three blocks and making each block 11 inches. These aren't trimmed down yet, I still have one more square to add to that one in the bottom right, slightly too small. Then sash it with white and wolah, cot sized baby quilt in pinks complete.

ooohhh, they're definitely pink. Such a fast quilter you are!
Oh I love those blocks! I have been thinking on an orange and pink quilt and I think those blocks would make a lovely quilt.
wolah indeed!
my word verification is bequabbion - that's crazy.
Looks great Helen, very you
This quilt is so cute so far. I love all the pinks you are using.
Love, love love and love the wolah ;)
Do you find a lot of wasted fabric with this design? I'm doing something similar for my christmas skirt and finding a lot of wastage... Unless of course it's just the way Im doing it ass about as usual!!!
Gorgeous. I think you may just have solved my problem with a quilt I've discarded because it didn't work. Thanks.
