Two Quilts For Little Ones
40 x 40
I'm glad I took the pictures a few days ago. Since then we've had a little more snow and more frigid temperatures and wind.
The first one is pinks and grays. I made this top and another larger one (not yet quilted) last year when pink was the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) color of the month.
It's a simple quilt made of alternating 4.5 inch pink and gray squares.
I quilted it on my DSM on the diagonals with light gray thread.
The binding is pink gingham.
Pink elephants, some polka dotted, are on back.
This is a BTF (back then front) quilt meaning I started with the back and made a front to go with it.
Hello Kitty!
I made this top last year around the same time I made the pink and gray one. I guess I had squares on my mind. This one started with a piece of Hello Kitty fabric someone gave me.
I just happened to have a few fabrics like footprints and polka dots to add to the mix in red, black and white. I set the squares in a diagonal red, black, white layout. I also quilted this one on the diagonals in white thread.
The binding is red gingham.
The same person gave me a different Hello Kitty piece of fabric in a different colorway with a lot more pink in it. There was not enough of it for a backing so I had to piece the backing.
Actually both quilts are reversible! Which is the front and which is the back?
And sew on...
