If you're new to this sew along, we're using block patterns from the book, Charming Baby Quilts* (by Melissa Corry) and at the end of the six weeks we'll have a cute sampler quilt all pieced! You can find all of the information for the sew along here on the Fat Quarter Shop's blog

This week's blocks are so darling! You'll be making blocks from the Ring Around the Rosie quilt pattern:
...and two blocks from the Shine Bright quilt pattern:
Don't forget to print this week's pattern sheet from the Fat Quarter Shop's blog here.
I love these star blocks. I tried to use some of the bolder prints in these blocks so the white star points would stand out. I love how scrappy they look!
Here's a photo of the full Shine Bright quilt from the book, Charming Baby Quilts. Isn't it so fresh and lovely? The Shine Bright quilt uses 3 charm packs and finishes at 56" x 56".
This book has so many great baby quilts- it's a wonderful resource to keep on your shelf! Grab a copy here from the Fat Quarter Shop.
I'll be back next week with our last set of blocks for the sew along. In the mean time, you can see the past weeks' blocks here:
Week 1
Week 2
Week 3
And if you'd like to make a quilt like mine, here's what you'll need:
- 5 Gypsy Soul charm packs
- 5 3/4 yards Moda Bella 98 for the background
- Here's the print I'll use for my binding
- And my backing will be this coordinating Grunge fabric (love the texture!)
I'm very behind on this QAL. It's all good though, at least I am making a quilt! I'm not sure how mine will turn out, I am using some charm packs that I have had for years and background that has been here just as long. I'm trying to use up as much of my stash, so when we are no longer isolating I can go out and buy a ton more fabric!
ReplyDeleteI love your colors! It looks so crisp and clean!
