Back in June I pieced two purple jumbo granny squares to be used in a crib quilt. I've pieced two more blocks and finished piecing the crib quilt. The fabrics used in last two blocks had nothing to do with the RSC color of the month. I just made two blocks that I thought would look nice, they do contain purple!
I thought adding some pink fabrics would add a nice touch. As you can see, not all my squares are matching fabrics but they work!
I'll machine quilt this crib quilt this winter and it will be donated to The Center for their well baby program. Right now the quilt measures 42.5" but I'm sure it will shrink during quilting.

Have a stellar Friday!!

Thanks! It's not hard to fussy cut when the fabric is cut into a strip.
Pretty pink fabrics; using scraps is always good news!
Love the scrappy large Granny blocks and great job on the quilt.
Your granny square blocks are very pretty. I love the fussy cut butterflies.
Very pretty, your granny blocks will make a lovely baby quilt indeed
Beautiful granny squares! :0)
You did a nice job. It is going to be well loved and cherished.
I love it! The fact that all the fabric aren’t matching is the best part . Exactly as our grandmothers would have done. In fact I have a quilt my grandmother pieced and she did that exact thing! Kudos!
The non-matched squares add extra interest, Gretchen. I think your quilt top is just darling!
That's such a pretty quilt! Lots of sweet prints. I like the center design, too!
They work beautifully!! the eyes want to move all around this quilt to see it all!!!
Beautiful quilt. Love the fussy cut butterfly's.
Those jumbo granny squares turned into the sweetest little quilt. Just like the caterpillars turned into those cute butterflies! Nicely done.
What a lovely baby quilt! I'm sure it will be greatly appreciated.
Another beautiful quilt, thanks for sharing!
Beautiful baby quilt! I love how the fabrics are different in each block and how you fussy cut those butterflies to feature them. Thanks for linking up with me for TGIFF!
Great way to use absolutely all of those beautiful butterflies! Stay safe and sew on !
