Blind Baby Quilt 2


This is the second kit from the quilt guild. All the details are the same for this quilt, except the every other tactile-neutral block was a plaid, cotton flannel. This neutral block was much easier to handle than the first quilt. If I do anymore of these quilts, I will check the kit to make sure I'm selecting one with an easy to handle neutral.

Size: Approximately 42" x 48" 
Quilting: Stitch in the ditch, using my "domestic" machine, 100% cotton, light gray, machine quilting thread. 
Backing: Dark rusty-orange, plain cotton from Mother's stash. Chosen because it is a little wider than 42" inches so wouldn't require a seam in the backing
Batting: 50% Cotton/50% Polyester (Warm Blend)
Binding: Dark blue plain cotton from Mother's stash.
Pattern: Tactile square alternating with a tactile-neutral square. Kit from the quilt guild.
Piecing by Patty using serger.  Quilting on domestic machine with walking foot. Stitch-in-the-ditch.
