| Wrap up the baby in cozy snuggles!! |
This was my first double gauze project, a quilt for C. Double gauze is pricey, so I only bought some half-yard cuts of various prints. I wanted to make the quilt as big as possible, so I minimized cuts. The result was a double-sided double gauze quilt using 1/8 cuts of fabric! Does that make sense?
Maybe I should call it the half-and-half quilt! All together, it uses 2 yards of (assorted) fabric. I spent a long time laying out where I wanted all the prints to go. It is different on the two sides.
I DID NOT quilt in the ditch, for fear of it looking messy on the reverse. (Remember, both sides are made of patchwork!) So I quilted not-in-the-ditch, offset, and it looks like windows.
I used regular puffy polyester batting, turned and topstitched, and this is the most cuddly quilt ever.
I dub this project an absolute success, and if you like it, too, I WILL be making more of these for my future shop! I believe every baby should have one!!
