stack #1

I'm so happy I went with the zigzag! I LOVE this quilt. My guess is I will try to sell it because I don't need it but I sure do love it!!! It will be a baby size. Well, what I consider baby size.:) I followed amandajean's tutorial. It was easy and fun!! She is a fantastic teacher. I feel blessed to have had her teach me. If you are looking for a get away she is going to be the speaker in CO in November. I think there are some spots left. If you are interested you can check out her blog here.
This is be the back of the quilt. As you can tell (if you linked to the tutorial) I TOTALLY copied her quilt I just used white!:) This is a VERY fun quilt to me! This quilt took me about 2 1/2 to 3 hours today from start to finish. Although I still need to cut the points off.

  1. This is adorable. Can you tell me who makes that elephant fabric? I would love to find some like that and our quilt shop does not carry any with elephants on it!

  3. What a lovely job you've done, it's such a cute quilt with the elephants on the back!! Amandajean's fantastic, I've taken her tutorial too and made a girl's baby quilt.

  14. I just cut strips for a zigzag baby quilt using her tutorial too! I'm using blues and greens, without the alternating solid stripe. I hope it won't be too busy. Only 3 hours?? Wow! I hope to get a good start during the entire afternoon!
