Caroline’s Baby Buffalo Plaid Quilt

Hi Friends,

I hope your week has been a good one!! I’m excited for the weekend. I have a quick share with you today…

If you’re ever looking for a quick and masculine baby quilt to make for the new mom in your life, a Buffalo Plaid quilt is a great option. I’ve did one for two of my nephews when they were babies, and they’ve been a hit! The key is finding that fabric for the middle color. I love what Caroline did on this one. I think she cut her squares around 3.5”, if I remember right.

I chose my Squared design for the quilting, and I think it turned out great!! I love how the quilting design is at a different angle than the squares in the quilt. Squared is such a versatile design!! If you haven’t used it yet, you should. It’s definitely a go to design for me, and works beautifully on a variety of different quilts. It’s available in my shop.

I used my favorite batting 8020 from Winline Textiles and my go to Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads.

Can you see why I love this design on squares…that texture!!!

And, it was backed with minky so it’s definitely a cozy quilt!!

Thanks for stopping by!! I hope you have some fun sewing plans this weekend. Happy quilting! • Leisha
