So I am teaching my Charming Baby Quilts Sampler as a Block of the Month for our local quilt guild, here in Cedar City ;) Which means, I need to make some samples along the way to teach. So that equals a new Charming Baby Quilts Sampler!!! Now, I just need to decide on the fabric. It's always our favorite part right, so many fabrics, so little time :) I know I want to make one with a dark background so . . . .
I started with the idea of a Navy Background and then picking some Stashed Charm Packs that all had navy in them. I would not use the navy prints for the piecing, and then get a whole bunch of happy and bright colors that all tie into the Navy. So that is Option 1.
And of course . . . I can't decide which I like best. So could you help a friend out :) What is your favorite . . . . Option 1 Scrappy and Happy, Option 2 Purple and Striking , or Option 3 Low Volume Grunge Goodness. Comment below ;)
And would any of you like to sew along with me just in case you missed the first Quilt Along?? All you need is a copy of my Charming Baby Quilts Book, and these Free PDF downloads for the quilt along cutting instructions ;)
I definitely like the top two best! The second one with the BYU blue background shows the colors best though. I'm not that fond of basic tans. Some people love them best. We just have different tastes!
ReplyDeleteI love your blocks so much that it makes me want to buy these same fabrics. I cannot do this. I cannot. I must not! I am so determined to sew from my huge stash. I can say that you have been a hugely good influence on me, Amy, to help me see that I should use my sewing skills and fabric to help others! Thank you for your great example!
ReplyDeleteOops! That went to the wrong blog! But, you also give away your guilts all the time!
DeleteI really like the navy background. Happy!
ReplyDeleteI love the navy background and all the bright colors.
ReplyDeleteLOVE scrappy & happy option 1!!
ReplyDeleteI like the purple, option 2, but….they are all great.
ReplyDeleteScrappy and Happy Option One is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI like the grays best, but the purple runs a close second for me.
ReplyDeleteScrappy option 1. Bright and cheery for a baby
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is option 1.
ReplyDeleteSince this quilt is a baby quilt, I would choose Option 1: Scrappy and Happy. That said, I love all three options. The second and third would be great for teen or adult bedroom decor.
ReplyDeleteLike 1 best
ReplyDeleteI love the purple background.
ReplyDeleteOption 1, Scrappy and Happy!
ReplyDeleteI love the low volume, but a baby quilt needs to be a happy quilt with brighter colors.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the others who say scrappy and happy seems best for a baby quilt.
ReplyDeleteI like the navy with bright blocks the best.
ReplyDeleteScrappy and Happy
ReplyDeleteAdoro o fundo azul marinho!
