I was itching to make another quilt. One without much of a plan.
{front}
I love log cabins, I think I could make a million more with all my scraps.
Anyway, I had my little stash of these super cute Sevenberry fabrics (purchased from a local shop that has since gone out of business, wah!) I’d been saving for too long. They’re just so perfect, calling out for a special baby quilt.
Luckily, our good friends had their 4th baby recently (a girl). For me, that deserves a special prize in and of itself. Don’t you think?
This isn’t my usual color palette, not that I know if I really have one, but it’s different from a lot of other things I’ve made. {Now I’m looking at my pictures and see where the colors came from – my backyard, tan and white and brown – wintery.} So I got a few fat quarters from my local shop, Basic Grey’s Basics by Moda and a few others.

With the quilting I went for some organic lines and I love the texture it creates.
There’s another component to this gift I just finished up, but that’ll have to wait for another post.
Quilt measures 36″ by 40″.
Gorgeous!
very sweet- any baby would be lucky to receive this!
Oh, those fabrics are so sweet! I love that baby #4 will receive something new and special!
Lovely! I’m in love with those fabrics, I just love bunnies and those are so cute!
I love it, very, very, very much!!!
This will be treasured, I’m sure!
Great present! Simply gorgeous!
The little animals on the fabric are so sweet. Lovely gift, Anna. I love that you added a log cabin square to the back, and I really love the quilting lines. Beautiful!
I love it! I share your love for log cabin squares and love to see them used outside of the normal log cabin on log cabin
Beautiful! And I love that the colours could be for either sex – without being the predictable yellow or green.
Oh. so pretty! And refreshingly not pink (which I’m sure she’ll appreciate if she has other girls). I really like the text fabric!
very nice! and i love the color palette. so unique and soft. 🙂
That is super cute, Anna. I love the bunnies, and that it is for a girl but not all pink. I think the back is my favorite!
{Four kids! yikes…..prizes indeed!}
It’s beautiful Anna. I love log cabin squares too.
So pretty. I love the calm colors.
i love the neutrals. i’m making a couple quilts in neutrals…just so calming! love it anna!
I absolutely love this.
This baby quilt is gorgeous! I am sure the new parents will be really happy with this handmade present.
There’s nothing nicer than a quilt for a new baby. I’m sure the parents of the little one who gets this will appreciate it very much. Lovely quilt!
Lovely quilt! I love the colors and the log cabin. Although I’ve done quite a few log cabins, I haven’t done one in a while and it’s a great pattern to come back to. I may have to revisit it, soon.
I love the color palette you chose! And the overall design of the quilt is just lovely. Can you believe that I’ve never made even a log cabin block? I think I have to change that….
LOVELY! I love the design and the color scheme, What a lucky little girl this quilt is going to!
Love it! Cute, but not cutesy. Not pink or blue, either, which is refreshing. An excellent use of fabric and time 😉
I love love love quilts like this! You did a fantastic job 🙂
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE those colors. Beautiful.
That is a very cute quilt, Anna! I love how you used typography fabric in a lot of places!
Beautiful! I love that you went for out-of-the-box colors and organic lines.
Just a quick note to let you know that a link to this post will be placed on CraftCrave today [22 Feb 12:00am GMT]. Thanks, Maria
Beautiful Anna. I love the back too, with the organic patchwork and quilting. I might just give it a go myself soon. 🙂
Ooh – beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, Anna!
Great baby quilt. I love the colors and the design is amazing.
I would love to be capable of doing this. Anyone who can quilt has a very special talent. This is adorable. I love browns and pinks for a baby girl. Congrats!
Gorgeous job Anna! Love it. I’m gonna have to try me a log cabin one of these days!

I think I’m safe in assuming this is headed up north to Alaska 😉 It is GORGEOUS!!!!! The color palate is wonderful, as are the organic lines and puckers. I love it Anna. LOVE it! It’s a definite heirloom for sure.
very sweet! i just finally finished my first quilt and can see how it can become additive! look forward to seeing more of your quilts 🙂
Oooh, I’m inspired. Will have to give the log cabin a try. I like negative space in your quilt too. Very cool looking.
Love how you pieced this quilt together! It’s quite lovely!
That fabric is adorable!
Wow, this quilt came out so great! I’m usually attracted to bright colors, but I’m loving the neutral palette on this quilt. So sweet for a baby!
That is an amazing quilt!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!
What a darling quilt! Love, love, love the fabrics and colors. They are going to love it, too. What a wonderful gift!!!
