Yep, I turned all that flannel into a baby quilt!
My Besties daughter is having a baby girl and I had ten days after Christmas to
whip up a quilt before the shower.
You know how sometimes you have to get one thing out of the way before you can start on another? Well that’s how I felt with this, I had to get over Christmas before I could tackle a quilt.
The pattern is called “Granny Square” and very easy to do. I cut it all out in one day, assembled the squares that next day, and on the third day I put it all together with a simple stitch in the ditch to hold it all together.
The baby’s room is being done in non traditional colors as you can see.
I hope the flannel will keep the baby warm this winter.
I so love to quilt and it was nice to be able to have a project to do again.

Just beautiful! I’d like to wrap up in that myself!
I love it Dawn! There is nothing more snuggly than a flannel quilt! Your friend’s daughter will be thrilled!
I need to get a quilt going. But I have three or four that I need to do the free motion quilting on before I start another one!! I am like you….I need to tackle one big thing at a time!

I think the little owls really make your quilt adorable.
It’s sure to be warm with all that cozy flannel you used too.
Congrats on having a new addition to the family!
Congratulations! It looks so cute! Oh what fun 🙂
Awww. What a sweet quilt. I love the owls and the colors!
Very sweet quilt. You did a great job! Great finish. One of my goals is many finishs this year. I am beginning to do my own quilting. I am lovin’ it! BTW I love your idea of B&W on Friday. I might just join you! Love you photo! I love barns.
Thanks for sharing.

That is so cute! She will love it.
The quilt is so cute! I admire you for making a quilt! I’m too scared to try. Have you made many quilts?
So cute! I didn’t realize it was flannel when I saw the teaser post. It will be extra warm and comfy.
What baby wouldn’t be snug in that wonderful quilt!
What a cute, cute baby quilt! I’m so glad today’s generation is making different choices from the traditional baby colors. Not that there’s anything wrong with pink and blue–it was just too limiting. Your grandbaby will love the bright colors–I’m sure of it!

I knew it would be cute but this is so way cute. Owls are all the rage and the fabric colors are so sweet! Nice work!
What a great project. I haven’t made a quilt in years and years…not sure I would remember how!
The quilt is just adorable, Dawn! I’m sure the recipients Mom is going to be very happy with your gift.

Those owls are great! I love baby quilts that are more than just big squares.
Your quilt is really nice! I’m sure that flannel will keep the little one very cozy. Cindy
How cozy Dawn! I love owls and this could not be more darling. Thanks for sharing.
