A happy trio of baby quilts

Hello again, and Happy Easter to you.

As you can see, from the photo below, I have made progress on the baby quilts - and I think I might be able to finish them this weekend.

I have used the same fabrics and the rectangle die (http://www.sizzix.co.uk/product/659837/sizzix-bigz-die-rectangle-2-x-4-finished-2-1-2-x-4-1-2-unfinished) for all of the quilts, and added the 2" finished square (http://www.sizzix.co.uk/product/657607/sizzix-bigz-die-square-2-finished-2-1-2-unfinished) for one, and the 1" finished strip (http://www.sizzix.co.uk/product/657607/sizzix-bigz-die-square-2-finished-2-1-2-unfinished) for the third quilt.

I think you'll agree they look quite different, but all have the rectangle in common, it was a happy decision to make the task easier, which worked for me!

 

This quilt is a rail fence, using 2 rectangles for each block.

I laid the whole quilt out and then made the blocks for each row, joined the rows and there we have a cot quilt top.

This quilt uses the square with the rectangle to make a rainbow of blocks that I joined together in sequence.

 This is actually the quilt I made first - using the white strip to alternately with the bright spots.

Now they just need to be quilted and bound - but I think I might manage that this weekend.

So not quite HRH but certainly a bright beginning!
Next week I think I will be showcasing a 'new' die - it's not been in our catalogue for very long and this will be my first time using it - so watch this space!
Enjoy this very special weekend.
