I've been working on my class samples for next term's programme.
One of them is a baby quilt based around the traditional Bear's Paw block.
I put 4 Bear's Paw blocks together to make one large block, and then 4 of these giant blocks make up the baby quilt:
At the moment it is coming out at 49" x 49", but I'm debating whether to put a skinny border on it.
I've used the Savannah Bop fqs I won at FQ Retreat last year. I think the wee animals on the prints are so cute!
I got this quilt top made in the equivalent of 1 day, thanks mainly to the wonderful Sizzix 4.5" hst die!
It's sooooooo wonderful not to have to spend hours trimming hsts!!
And if folks don't want to make a Baby Bear Paw quilt, they can upsize to a Mama Bear Paw!
So now I need to make up my mind about a border and get it basted, quilted and bound before moving on to the next class sample!
Have a great Thursday!
Ooo gorgeous - you should enter it into the Your Andover contest...looks like a winner to me!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt, Judith!!
ReplyDeleteAh.. you got the HST die then? lol Great blocks, should go down a treat with a new class :-)
ReplyDeleteOh it is really gorgeous and I am sure that your class will like making it. Di x
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic! Great colors and cute animals for a baby quilt
ReplyDeleteSo bright and sweet! I am in love with those little rhinos on the fabric. I think the skinny border would finish it off really nicely (would you rather I hadn't said that?), and I especially love the secondary design created in the white when the blocks join. Great class project!
ReplyDeleteLooks gorgeous. Love those rhinos!
ReplyDeleteIt's fabulous!
ReplyDeleteAnother Sizzix HST lover - fantastic quilt!!
ReplyDeleteOh wow I love this and I so wish now I'd asked for a sizzex for Christmas or my birthday!
ReplyDeleteAww, love the mama and baby bear paws!
ReplyDeleteIt is great fun, I hope you skipped the borders and left it as it is. What a fun class it will be.
ReplyDeleteOoh gorgeous - I love quilts made up of giant blocks!!
ReplyDeleteBaby bear paw is gorgeous, perfect size. I really want a sissex as I love HSTs but hate trimming them.
ReplyDeletewhat a stunner!
