Last night I finished up my blocks for the pink modern 4 patch flip. I'm pretty pleased with it.
These modern quilts are way out of my box but I am pleased with it. This is for my new niece coming in April. My sister decorates her home in warm, traditional tones of beige and browns BUT I've noticed that she has been buying some boutique baby clothes and they are all made out of modern type fabric so I thought this would be nice.
I sent a photo to my sister of the quilt last night and she loved it or at least said she did. LOL!
Later today I hope to work on my Grand Illusion quilt. I am behind on the steps so I hope to get caught up a little on it. Sometime this morning I need to go to the grocery store. :( I hate going but it is needed. One of the doctor's that Richard works with gave him 8 GALLONS of gourmet popcorn so I need to get something else to snack on other than this! LOL! Right now I am munching on the chocolate swirl.

Those fabrics aren't my usual either, but it's fun to go a little out of your box once in a while and baby quilts are the best way to do it! It's looking great...I love the pattern! I need to make a baby quilt for a soon to be born grand-niece too!
I too buy what I call the old timey looking fabrics. Its what I seem to gravitate toward. But I can sure appreciate how pretty the more modern ones work up. Lots of quilters use them :O).
This is very fresh and cute for a sweet baby girl.
That is a lot of popcorn!! : )
I did a google search but can find the pattern for this quilt pattern. Do you have a link?
