Bubble Gum Colors in a Baby Quilt

Once in a while, I end up with a block or two or four left over from another project. Last year I made this wonderful full-size churn dash quilt from a lovely set of pastel fabrics. Blogged here.

There were four blocks left over and I put them aside thinking I would make 2 more and make a baby quilt with a little adding sashing and a border.

 I found this beautiful watercolor fabric in my stash when I counted my inventory and knew it would be perfect with these blocks. The blocks went up on my design wall and I used up every bit of that fabric to stretch this quilt to a good size for a cuddle quilt for a baby.

Backed with a matching pale green Minky, this quilt is so much prettier in person! 

 What do you make with your left overs?

    Beautiful! Love churn dash blocks and the watercolor fabric is just perfect. I try to use up bits and pieces and the smallest I make of leftovers are mug rugs or coasters, the rest (fabrics) I cut into squares in different sizes. Can't throw anything! :)

    Love both of those quilts! I like to make small quilts or bags out of my leftovers. Mug Rugs are a great idea as well!
