Thank you Lowena. I'm looking for something nice and simple to do now. Placemats I think. I'm going to check out Iminei's chinese lantern pattern, see how big it comes out. xx

That's a beautiful quilt, I love the border colours too.  Lucky baby.
Life's too short for ironing.

Thank you Ploshkin and KittyKat. I didn't think the border colours would be to everyone's taste, but when I was looking for the fabrics the more "baby" colours seemed very wishy washy to me, so I went for the deeper ones. xx

Lovely!

I'm hoping to make a couple of baby mats this Easter break, so keeping an eye out for things like that to inspire me. Love your chicks. Own design?

No Fajita, it was a pattern from British Patchwork and Quilting in October 2011, so it's been round a while. The designer is Cathy Little and at that time she had a web site at quiltersquest.co.uk. It might be worth a look to see if there's anything else thee that you fancy.
