Deep Blue Sea Baby Quilt

Deep Blue Sea Baby Quilt

A while back (more than 2 years actually) I took Rachel's Curves class and made this Scallop Quilt.  It is still one of my favorite projects and I have wanted to try something similar.  But I had no idea how to make templates for my own quilt until I started using EQ7 recently.

I knew I wanted to use some of my favorite blue Kona colors, but I mostly had darker blues in stash so I ordered a few lighter options.  But then they didn't arrive labeled so I am not sure what the 3rd color from the top is (oops).  I think it might be Azure I was wrong, it's Capri!  The others are Navy, Celestial, Cyan, Aqua, and Sky.  I really need to get a Kona card.

I was surprised how quickly the quilt top came together.  It has curves, but they are pretty big and wide and not difficult at all.  If there is any interest I might post a tutorial next week so let me know. The tutorial is available here.

I quilted it with lots of wavy lines.  it gave the quilt a nice texture and I liked how it gave it an ocean-y look.

Since I posted about baby boy quilts they have been on my mind.  So here is another idea to add to my list for baby showers, especially since this one is pretty quick.

The backing fabric is an Ann Kelle Remix print.  I love the Remix prints.

Since I don't have any upcoming baby showers I am adding this one to my shop.  You can find it here.

Finished size: 38" x 48"

I also just wanted to plug Rachel's classes because I loved taking her Curves class so much.  She is currently offering an Angled class, which looks so fun.  She is great and I highly recommend her classes!
