Charming Baby Quilt
{Silas & Friend Tony Go for a Car Ride}
Have you ever wished you could make a cheap affordable quilt out of designer fabric? Well, I’ve got a super easy one for you today. You’ve seen peeks of these quilt before in my June and July Stash Projects, and here are a few directions to go along with them! You will need:
1 Charm Pack (42 – 5″ squares)
1/4 yard inner border
1/2 yard outer border
1 1/4 yard backing
1/3 yard binding
Arrange your Charm Squares into the desired order, six across and seven down, then sew them together. I prefer to sew the short rows, pressing the seams in alternating directions on each row. Then sew the rows together to create the quilt top.
Cut four 2 inch strips for the inner border. Sew one strip to each side of the quilt, then one to the top and bottom. Repeat for the larger boarder with 3 1/2 inch strips.
Your quilt top is finished! Then layer your backing, batting, and top, quilt as desired, and bind with 2 1/2 inch strips. Enjoy an easy way to make a special little quilt without breaking the bank for each new arrival! At the rate my friends are having babies, I’m going to be making a lot of these!
