Lisa’s Baby Quilts

Lisa made a few baby quilts that I had the privilege of doing edge to edge quilting on…and they are simple makes. I don’t think that she used a pattern for either.

The flag panel is from Sarah Federking and is called Little Explorers from Studio E Fabrics. Then she used a variety of different animal prints for the top and bottom borders with the rust orange dot, love the combination!

Quilting adds so much dimension and texture, and Malachite by Patricia Ritter doesn’t disappoint!! I love using it on map quilts, which adds kind of a ripple effect on the water and dimension on the land. It’s available at Urban Elementz.

I used 4oz bamboo batting from Winline Textiles and natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads.

A close up on the quilting…

Check out that minky + quilting …it’s sooo good!! This is why solid minky is always the best idea when choosing minky for the backing. The quilting texture doesn’t compete with a minky texture or longer pile, when it is the regular solid minky. The regular solid minky also comes in 90” wide bolts as well.

Lisa made two of these darling quilts.

Sew squares together with sashing in between, and then add large triangles on the sides to create an on point center for the block.

I used natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads on both of them as well as the 4oz bamboo batting from Winline Textiles. It’s such a soft and cuddly batting, definitely one of my favorites.

I used Baptist Clam by Laurie Thomas from It’s a Quilt Thing to quilt it. And it quilted out beautifully!

I hope that you enjoyed these darling baby quilts and the quilty textures. If you’re hoping to have something quilted, check out my edge to edge quilting calendar and schedule a day or two. Thank you!! Happy quilting, leisha.

Angie’s Baby Cuddles Quilts

Angie has a great go to baby pattern, pick some of your favorite fabrics and get yourself a copy of Baby Cuddle by Fresh Dew Drops. I’m going to share four baby quilts she made and a queen sized of the same quilt. Fresh Dew Drops has a regular pattern with larger sizes as well it’s called Simply Done Quilt.

What I love about a pattern like this one is it’s all about the cute fabrics, and it’s super fast.

I quilted this one using a free panto design available on my Gammill Statler called Rose Vine by Norma Sharp. It quilts out beautifully!

I used natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads and my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting by Winline Textiles.

This is a gender neutral one because the parents were waiting until they have their baby to find out. I love the pops of color and fun prints.

We went with a gender neutral panto design, too. This is also a free one on my Gammill Statler called Geometric Border. The designer isn’t listed. I love the fun texture this design creates.

I used natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads, it blends so well. I also used 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.

See that texture on the minky, sooo good!

Love this sweet version!

I used the same 8020 cotton poly blend batting and a cream Omni thread from Superior Threads.

I used Patricia Ritter and my Sweet Indigo panto design to quilt it, which is available at Urban Elementz.

How sweet is the quilting on this quilt?!?!

Next up, this sweet apple print.

We originally talked about putting a flower on this one, and I then I thought Sprig would be an excellent choice. It’s by Abling Vines and is available at www.matantequilting.com

This is a favorite of mine. It stitches out beautifully and creates lovely texture.

I used my favorite natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads and 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.

Check out that quilty texture!!

Here is the queen sized version that Angie made for her daughter who loves Halloween.

You can probably guess I used natural white Omni thread from Superior Threads, which blends so great on even those black fabrics. I also used 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.

I used the Haunted Web panto by Apricot Moon Designs to quilt it. It’s available at Urban Elementz.

Thanks for being here!!

If you’d like to have a quilt quilted check out my calendar and schedule a day or two.

Happy quilting!! Leisha

Pat’s Summer Haze Quilt

Are you looking for an adorable baby quilt??? I have a sweet one to share with you today!!

Pat made this sweet Summer Haze quilt, and the pattern is by Suzy Quilts. The fabric is a line that came out October 2020 called Folktale by Vanessa at Lella Boutique. The combination of the pattern and fabrics is sooo good.

I used my favorite 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles and Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads.

I came across this super darling free panto design on my Statler called Rose Vine by Norma Sharp. If it doesn’t come free on your machine, it’s available in paper and digital format at Quilts Complete. I’ve linked the digital version above.

The quilting design softens all the hard lines, and matches the fabrics perfectly!! Pat was thrilled!!! Check out that quilty texture on the minky backing.
