Thread Choices, used the bright yellow
This is the fourth of the neonatal quilts I made for the quiltathon. I cut out this one and the next one and took them as "kits" to work on during the quilt-a-thon. The citrus colored fabrics came from a fat eighth roll that Ravinder and the girls gave me for Christmas. Each fat eighth made rectangles for 2 quilts. The other fabrics in the quilt, including the cute print I used on the back, came from my stash. Therefore, this quilt completes my 2015 goal of using my "inventory" before buying more fabric. I can now invest in more inventory! Yay!
The pattern was a simple one suggested by members of the guild and posted on the guild's web site.
