Baby Cakes Quilt- Start
I have been working on another baby quilt, Baby Cakes Quilt from the book Strip Happy. You can still find this Jelly Roll pattern book at Joanns, which is running a 40% off sale on all quilting books this weekend (FYI). A funny story...before Joann's started carrying it, I was looking for this book. I did a search on Barnes and Noble....you would have just laughed at all of the books that "strip happy" pulled up! Needless to say I gasped!
I enjoyed this pattern although I am not done yet. I still need to sew my blocks together. I am waiting on the rest of my Flutterby (Moda) fabric to arrive to put the borders on. This pattern was very easy! It would be great for a begginner or an advanced looking to do something fast. Besides, I just love the blocks.
So, the quilt really runs in the opposite direction. I just wanted to get a quick shot in, so you all knew I was up to something. I will post a better picture when I get the top done!

Hmmmm, I have that same pattern book... I think I have to take a closer look at it. Love the top!
I have this book, can't remember if I've made a quilt from it or not. Too funny about your search of this book on Amazon.
I have that book too....it's great..I am hooked on moda pre-cuts...
Cute cute cute. And how many STRIPPER books did you buy might I ask???
HA! Good thing you didn't Google "strip happy" .... that would have been worse!!!
The quilt looks adorable!!
Sometimes you just need a quick project and this book has some terrific ones. I love the fabrics you chose.
Looks like a great design for a baby quilt - lots of colour!
Too funny, I love that book too. I like your little baby quilt think you called it coins too cute. I am also on WW and it is a slow process this time but the scale is going the right way LOL.
Oooh, I love the colors -- can't wait to see the finished goods!
