Eight By Eight Baby Quilt

I've called this patchwork baby quilt Eight By Eight due to the number of squares.

This square patchwork would work well as a baby quilt or as a play mat. 

The quilt is made up of narrow scrappy strips in strong colours and laid out to creaate squares and bordered with more narrow strips.  The backing fabric is a multicoloured modern design and I added a scrappy binding.  All the fabric is 100% cotton.

The patchwork has been quilted on the diagonal in each direction.

I made the quilt on a domestic machine and finished it by hand.

Between the layers is good quality Warm and Natural wadding.  The quilt is machine washable on a gentle setting.

The approximate measurements of this square quilt are 51" x 51" or 129.5 cms  x 129.5 cms.
