Rag Quilt

I'm predicting I'm going to have a few more crafts posted soon since we have a baby girl on the way!! I think I go through spurts when I'm feeling creative and other times when I would rather sit down and read a book. As of late it's been mostly pregnancy sickness and summer traveling.

Here is a rag quilt I made with the guidance of my friend Tarin. She makes these quilts and sells them on Etsy. Here is a link.

ABC Quilt

I found this fabric in California and loved the panel. I initially wanted to try a patchwork quilt but I thought this panel was much cuter than anything I could put together so I just bought some flannel for the back and some quilt batting. I sewed along the squares to make it look more patchwork but it was the border that gave me the headache. It shouldn't have been bad I just had some measurement problems. At the end I didn't pay too much attention to the border because I just wanted to get this done. Then the next day I laid it out in my son's room and this is what he did...

I'd call this a success!
