A Cotton Candy finish

This pretty child quilt is the result of a jelly roll strip tease challenge on Stashbusters yahoo group.  Actually I made 4 tops in June because of this challenge.  I saw a quilt like this one on Sue Dario's blog.  She does fabulous work.  I made up my own version here.

I'm calling it Cotton Candy.  It finished at 42 x 49.  There is a pretty fleece print on the back.  I quilted it with westalee rulers;  Circles on Quilts ruler for the baptist fan,  heart border template on the border and some improv play on the final 2 inch border.  Having so much fun with the westalee rulers, I am hooked.


I think I'm stashing this one for a family or friend need... no label until I know where it's going.  I'm happy to share this finish with ......................

  8. Congrats on the finish! Fun and bright (baby) quilt. I love the look of "easy" strip quilts. Your idea to pep it up a bit with the squares is genius.

  9. I love this quilt. The crisp white against the bright colors is perfect. Your quilting looks wonderful. You've got me about an inch away from buying the ruler foot and some rulers.
