Meg's Quilt and a Go! Baby GIVEAWAY!


Here is the quilt I created using the Accuquilt Go! Baby fabric cutter.  I originally blogged about it here.  This is for my "someday" baby girl.  I am not pregnant, nor will I be anytime soon, but I would love to have a little girl and name her Lola :)  Although honey is not on board with the name, I have my ways ;)


I've really wanted to use that citron green with grays and aqua, such a cool color combination.  Although the fabrics are girly, I needed to add the appliqué flowers to really make it pretty.


It's the prefect crib size, measuring 31" x 41".  

There's all sorts of fabrics in there, Heather Bailey, Michael Miller, MoMo for Moda...

I used a blanket stitch around the flowers.  Not quite sure how I'll quilt this, but I do know that I will not quilt it until after market :)


Next Thursday, May 5th I will be sharing a tutorial so you can make one too!  All of the piecing was cut with a Go! Baby fabric cutter, but you do not have to have one in order to create this.  I hope you'll come back and see :)

And the GIVEAWAY!


Your very own Go! Baby Fabric Cutter!

  20. Not sure what my favorite die would be. I haven't ever had the chance to use one. I'm guessing it might be a tumbler or I'm wanting to make a Dresden plate or a double wedding ring quilt.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I think I'd have to go with a hexagon cutter. I really want to try making some, but the idea of cutting out all of those hexagons doesn't sound like fun. This would make it so quick.

    ReplyDelete
