A disappearing nine patch quilt.

I’ve had this one finished for a few weeks but with the travelling and rainy weather it took me a while to get around to photographing it. (You can scroll down to the bottom to get the PDF download for this pattern.)

This is an easy-peasy disappearing nine patch, nothing earth-changing, just a nice, bright quilt/playmat for a gorgeous spring baby.

For the back I went with a simple stripe design, and also appliquéd the little miss’ name on in white.

I was very proud that I remembered to trace the letters back-to-front. Normally I forget that sort of thing.

I added an extra ‘e’ to practice on with scrap material before I tackled the appliqué.

Quilting was a grid style, either side of the disappearing 9 patch seams. Then I went back and filled in some areas along each edge with denser quilting.

The binding is a turquoise material which I can’t for the life of me find the name of. I don’t know what I did with the selvedge either. I swear I lose 5% brain capacity with every pregnancy.

The baby has a big sister so I thought I’d make a little something just for her. This little case is based on a tutorial I found on Noodlehead’s website. I just adjusted the size to suit the zipper I had on hand and then added a bit of embellishment.

I like that it’s made from fabrics in the baby’s quilt. Once completed, I filled it with some pretty hair clips and hair bands.

I’m looking forward to having some more cuddles with this baby when I drop these off. Can never have too many baby cuddles!
