One of the first ones I bookmarked for future use was this one -
This is the Whimsy: Charm Pack Baby Quilt I found over at Sew 4 Home.
Not only is it pretty, but it seemed like a relatively easy quilt. Exactly what a beginner quilter, like me, needed to get my feet wet.
Lucky for me, I finally got the opportunity to make a quilt like this one when my future sister-in-law announced that she was pregnant with a baby girl.
So I bought myself a pretty charm pack and some fabric and got to work.
If any of you are a Facebook fan of mine, you know exactly how long I was working on this :op
It's not difficult, I promise. Just time consuming (like all quilting is). Plus I'm working on like 8 projects at once, so I kept stepping away from this one to work on others, so it took a while.
I just love the combo of vintage and modern floral prints. Not to mention the nice, soft colors. Perfect for a little girl, but no so babyish that she outgrows it quickly.
It was a great starter quilting project! I can't to try my hand at some others! :o)
