I am working on a baby quilt for a dear friend of mine. Her baby shower is this Friday ... at MY house ... so you know what I will be doing this week. I promised her a baby quilt, and although I'm sure she'd take an IOU, I'd really like to give it to her on Friday. These are the two 6" blocks that will make up the quilt. I have 14 of them done. Not sure how many I want to make, but I know I need to make more!!!
I tie dyed two pieces of fabric. One is a spiral done in Cayman Island Green, Bright Yellow, and um, I don't remember the third color, but it's an aqua/turquoise type. The other was done by banding portions of the fabric and dyed with orchid, caribbean blue, and aquamarine. I love how the different colors show up in random ways when the fabrics are cut up. I think it's going to make a really nice quilt. She doesn't know the sex of the baby, so hopefully it will work for either a boy or a girl. I think it will.

Great colors Michelle! BTW...we all miss you out here in the bloggosphere! Your work is fun to follow!
OH so very lovely Michelle! It will be great for boy or girl! Too bad we weren't closer, we would pop that baby on the longarm machine and have it quilted up in no time! I can hardly wait to see it finished.
A beautiful quilt, made with your beautiful fabric, given by your beautiful heart! The perfect gift.
XO
