Vintage Baby Quilt Pattern with Hunky Dory Fabric by Moda
This was made using the "Vintage Baby Quilt" pattern. I left more of the white around the edges of the quilt, to serve as a small "border." I also did a simple pieced backing. The fun thing about this pattern is that there's no piecing on the front. Instead, you sew the 2.5" squares (quartered charms) through all layers of the quilt sandwich. I used 1/2" wide tape to create a grid on the white background fabric, then lined my squares up with that. (I actually only taped every other space, rather than each one.) The tape left a bit of reside here and there, which I was able to rub off with my fingers. However, I would suggest removing the tape promptly, once the squares have been layed out and pinned securely in place (through all layers). I also highly suggest using spray basting to hold the quilt sandwich together (not the squares). Finished measurements are 40" x 40". Uses (169) 2.5" squares, so you can get away with using one 42-pc charm pack, plus one more 2.5" square. A jelly roll will work too; it's a lot more fabric than you need, but you could use some of the strips for a scrappy binding and/or on the back of the quilt. This is my first upload to Flicker, but I've made quite a few other quilts. Most of my pics are on another photo-sharing site, but since I sometimes browse Flicker for inspiration, I thought maybe I'd share some of my own creations here.
