KID QUILT #1 - PINKING OF YOU


KID QUILT #1 - PINKING OF YOU

For this quilt, I used this collection of pinks (and one purple) from Wilmington Prints.  There were forty strips, with two of each color.  Each strip measured 2.5" x 42".

I found the idea for the design of this quilt from a photo I saw on Pinterest, but I do not know what it is called.  I used all the strips, plus some Kona white.  The backing is a really fun pink plaid flannel and was purchased from JoAnn Fabrics and Crafts Store.  I also bought the fabric for the binding there.  

The finished size of the quilt is 54" x 73".

I used Warm and White batting, also purchased from JoAnn.  The quilting pattern is called "Sea Foam" and I purchased that digital design from Urban Elementz, where I get most of my designs.  I purchased this design recently, and this is the first time I have used it.  I really, really like it!  The thread I used was YLI white cotton.


Here are some photos of the quilt in progress:

  







And here is the finished quilt.
