Originally I was going to make them into table runners, but then I realized that they would make the most AMAZING baby blanket.
I fooled around with the layout and decided I needed to beg Konda for another mini charm pack. She graciously dropped another over :) KONDA ROCKS!!!
So, Wednesday afternoon I got busy and made the CUTEST BABY BLANKET EVER!!! ;D
My 15 year old daughter laid the quilt out for me.
Didn't she do a GREAT job?
I learned how to make the monogram letter at the Utah County Modern Quilt meeting this month. Thanks, Anna!!
One of my kids asked what the "M" was for. I told them it was for "Marion" ;) (The baby's name that it is for is McKayla) My kids just looked at me like I was NUTS!!
I used pink minky for the backing with AWESOME vintage black gingham :)
I did swirly fmq. It only took me about 30 minutes to quilt :) Whoo Hoo!!!
The quilt measures 39" x 39". I will deliver it asap :)
I will post a tutorial HERE next Tuesday(11/27/12) on how to make a patchwork monogram :)
Linking up with Amanda Jean over at Crazy Mom Quilts :)
