This season I am sharing my line art baby quilt. This is the third quilt I have made from the same jelly roll. Each quilt used the same pattern just in different dimensions. The first one was lap size, the second one was a doll quilt. http://sewingsandy.blogspot.com/2011/04/julianne-baby-quilt.html
I really had no baby in mind when I made it, but I think it is the perfect quilt to have stashed away for a someday baby. The fabric was a Mary Engelbreit jelly roll and some kona white. It is approximately 29" x 36". I hand quilted it and finished the edges with rickrack under the binding. I would place this quilt in the baby quilt category and the hand quilted category.

Very sweet, there will be a lucky baby some day to get this from your stash.
Very crisp and bright. It will definitely catch some lucky baby's attention with all those beautiful colors.
Not only is that beautiful with great color, I'm in love with the addition of the rickrack! Amazing!
Squee! I love LOVE ric rac on quilts. And that fabric is the perfect choice for that. Great choice for BQF!
I'm in love with modern quilts these days!
It's just darling!
What a lovely baby quilt pattern. The Mary Engelbreit fabrics are the perfect choice.
I adore the simple quilts that show off the fabric. This one is adorable!! Any new mom would love receiving this as a gift. =)
It is a lovely quilt.
What a wonderful quilt for a jelly roll, and perfect for a lucky baby!!
Darling, so cute. Great colors, love the design. The pick stitch and rick rack add great interest.
Ive been seeing this gorgeous strip quilts round the place and have kept the idea in the back of my head for a future quilt.
Seeing how lovely your quilt is may have just pushed the idea firmly into my "must make this soon" queue!
I'm pretty sure I said this before, but in case I didn't, this quilt is fantastic! I'd forgotten that you hand-quilted it - that makes it extra-special! And the rick-rack...fabulous addition! :)
