Baby Trip Around the World

Much of my recent quilting time has been focused on prepping quilt tops and backs to have them long-arm quilted. In between doing that, I've become a little fixated on the Trip Around the World design. I started with a mini quilt top made as a sample for an extra-long twin version that I will be making for our guild's Community Service project. I wanted to try out the pattern one more time before starting the bed-sized quilt, which led to this sweet blue and yellow baby quilt top.

My original fabric pull for this quilt included one different fabric, but it was just too blah with the rest, and I swapped it out for the light blue check.

Now I'm ready to get started on the long twin version of this pattern. For our guild workday last week, we concentrated on pulling fabrics and cutting kits from an enormous stash that had been donated to the guild. These are the fabrics I selected for the quilt I will make.

  6. The yellow and blue baby quilt is darling. The blue check was the right choice. You picked a fun color palette for the twin version. Looking forward to seeing that finished top.
