Dressed-up Patchwork Baby Quilt



A simple patchwork quilt can't be beat- unless it's dressed-up just a bit! The inspiration for the design of this quilt came from a quilted pillow I once saw. I love how the little inset diamonds "dress-up" the patchwork design and how the overall design lends itself well to a "dressy" diagonal quilting pattern. This quilt uses fabrics from Samantha Walker's Roundup! line by Riley Blake Designs along with several coordinating fabrics from my stash. 


This quilt is backed with the main blue cowboy print and bound with a tiny stars print. It think the darker blue fabric frames the quilt nicely. Baby boy quilts are so fun to make!! This one will be snuggled and loved by a sweet baby boy named Beckstrom (and his mom, Kiley).


Quilt Stats:
  • 36" x 36" baby quilt
  • Samantha Walker's Round-up! fabrics by Riley Blake Designs and additional coordinating fabrics
  • Diagonal crosshatch quilting
  • Finished: February 27, 2016
