A new quilt project

Because it's going to be a few more years still before The Quilt is anywhere near done—since it's taken me two years of off-and-on work to get this far—I've begun working on a new quilt project. It seemed like a good idea to take a break and work on a smaller project. Something much smaller than queen-sized... Crib-sized to be specific... for the special little someone currently growing in my belly:

Baby at 20 weeks! Due to arrive around July 29 :)

I bought the fabric a couple of years ago when we were in Massachussetts, not knowing it was going to be for a baby quilt for my future baby, but here we are! I can't wait to swaddle up my little bundle in this quilt! My cousin contributed some delightful patterns to help even out the colour scheme, and I love how it's coming together!

Here is a portion of the first 6 of 23 rows.

  2. Congratulations. The quilt pattern is pretty cool - a little different from the normal squares or triangles.
