Finally...



I knew I wanted to make a baby quilt.  But it took me forever to come up with a plan.  Do you ever just draw a blank?  The baby is a little girl (expected in November) and I want the quilt to be sweet.  I remembered a fat quarter bundle I won a while back in a giveaway.  The selections are from Piggy Pirouette by Benartex.  When I opened up the fat quarter bundle, I discovered that there had been some fading on the folds.   So I opted for a square in a square plan and did a lot of fussy cutting to eliminate any faded areas.  (I had hoped to try something different from several quilts I had made in the past, but maybe next time.)  I am also using some fabric I found in my stash from Basic Grey...a pink with a splash of yellow grunge design.  Perfect!  The project is cut out and I am ready to sew.
