Baby Blanket for the Mod Mom

Thanks to a very trustworthy friend and a rainy weekend, I have now been able to introduce quilting to the KitchStitch shop.  I’ll have to admit that I was intimidated with the beautiful quilts on etsy, but after picking out the fabulous modern fabrics with the mom-to-be at the local hip fabric store (Fancy Tiger), the design just came alive and I went straight to work.

I made each section out of 3”x6” squares, in a chevron pattern on the front and backed it with white flannel for a soft hand on the back.  I am perfecting my skills to “stitch the ditch” but I must say, it didn’t turn out too bad for my first try.  Hopefully there will be many more to come.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I made some coordinating pillows too….

  

Hopefully I’ll have more quilts to follow soon!!  This one was a joy to make.
