Reneta made this super cute baby quilt off some ideas she saw on Pinterest. The picture that caught her eye first were from the blog post from Renewing Mrs. Sew & Sew. The original idea came from Blue Elephant Stitches and you can see that version here. Reneta used 3" squares and added her own borders ideas to make a rectangular rather than square quilt.
Reneta has originally asked for a flowery panto, but nothing I had seemed the right scale, so when I suggested Heart Strings, Reneta was on board. I normally choose more matching thread, especially on the back, but I decided to do a medium pink front and back. The Dream Puff batting makes for a lovely weight with flannel backing.
This is such a sweet quilt and aside from the back ground came right from the pink scrap bucket. Inspired to make your own?
Lovely pinks and the design is super, and the quilting a great finish, not too dense, and hearts as well, a treasure for a wee girl.
