My friend Rhys and his partner Nia recently had a beautiful baby boy called Gruffyd. I made them this baby quilt using scraps of shirting fabric, and simple quilted lines on every other strip block.

In progress - Indigo baby quilt
I bought a stash of Indigo patterned fat quarters and white-on-white printed fabrics last time I went to a big quilt show. I cut some of it up into 2inch and 2.5inch squares, and then ran out of steam. But I've recently discovered how to make quarter-square-triangle blocks, and so I used up some of the larger squares to for this, and turned it into Ohio Stars. I still need to back it, but I'm planning to sew buttons on as laid out here to quilt it simply.
Another baby-sized quilt, but as I (stupidly, as always!) didn't wash the fabric before I got carried away starting, and as it's indigo it will inevitably run, this of course won't be suitable for a baby as I don't think you'd ever be able to wash it without it ruining! So it will have to become a wall quilt instead. Ah well...

In progress - pink baby quilt
This is another quilt that needs backing - a baby quilt made of some old cushion covers I'd originally made from a charm pack of pink patterned fabrics. I cut the cushion covers up into random width diagonal strips and then sewed them together to make one higgledy-piggledy log cabin.

In progress - shirting scraps baby quilt
This is the front of a baby quilt I still need to finish. It's made with scraps left over from the wedding quilt I made for my friends Adam and Bex - vintage shirt fabrics from Worn and Washed.

Easy baby quilt
This was a really simple baby quilt I designed using sample 1inch fabric squares from Strawberry Fayre. They are each machine appliqued onto a 3 inch square of calico, and then sewn together.
