I made this quilt for a friend's baby shower. I finished this long back but hadn't got time to update the blog and also I wanted to ship it before I post it on my blog.
I picked a simple design for this quilt. Each completed block is about 6". When I started making it, I actually didn't know whether the owner of this quilt will be a baby girl or a boy. I didn't want to make a pink quilt so I picked other colors. Usually girls can adjust with blue colors too but I doubt if pink is enjoyed by boys. Though babies don't care about it at all but still :) I picked total 10 patterns. 5 of them for the inner block of the 6" block. Other 5 for the outer part of each block.
Below is the pic which shows the measurements of the pieces I had to cut. Each block consists of 5 pieces. Note that I have not shown all the pieces of a block in the pic below. You need 2 of those in blue of each size.
Mid square: 3.5” * 3.5”Boundary strips: 3.5” * 2” and 6.5” * 2”
The organization of the blocks is shown in the pic above. Its simple, 25 blocks as organized above and stitched together with 1/4" seam allowance. I use this website for calculating yardage for the fabric needed. For this quilt I had some fabric which was already available and some I bought so you will have to do the yardage calculation yourself.
