A Quilt - What a Beautiful Gift!

 Last night's project is for a dear friend who was married in 2011 and is expecting her first baby ANY MOMENT NOW!  It is a group project to make coordinating quilts to celebrate her wedding and the birth of her first child.    So a we are using the same pattern in two sizes to create these beautiful quilts.  I have never been a huge fan of grey.... but it looks just stunning in these quilts.

Here are all the donated blocks ready to be laid out!  It is just wonderful to have the advantage of so many fabric stashes.   

Here are a couple of the girls laying the baby quilt out on the design wall.  Everyone pitched in to balance the blocks.

 The Baby Quilt laid out!  The pattern (which I cannot recall - sorry) calls for additional 1/2" strips that run horizontally through the quilt.  We will piece the rows and then add the strips as we piece the quilt.

Laying out the queen size quilt! 

We are all in agreement that we are doing a block exchange so that we can make one too!  So FAB!
