I took a table runner pattern and turned it into a baby quilt!
My Quilt Info:
Pattern: Lil' Algorithm from GE Designs
Size: 40" x 51"
Batting: Quilters Dream 100% Cotton
Thread: Glide--Linen
This quilt starts with charm squares--32 for the original table runner. I have enough table runners, so I did the math and picked 110 charm squares of pink, mint green, dark green and yellow to make a baby quilt, with white Grunge for the accent.
For backing I used this pink rosebud flannel. ⤵️ It was part of a big bunch of flannel given to me by a quilt friend recently. Flannel makes such nice backings on baby quilts. 💝 Pink binding finishes this quilt.
This pattern is part of the "Stripology Lil Bundle Club" at GE Designs. Seven of the 12 patterns have been released so far. This is just my second one completed.
My Quilting Cousin Sue came over and we both started our 'Lil Algorithms together. She has her table runner done, also. Working together is great motivation to start and get the momentum going!
Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy

That made up into a very pretty baby quilt.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great block design -- a charming quilt.
ReplyDeleteIt turned out beautiful, Nancy! Such fun pattern.
ReplyDeleteIt’s so pretty! Love the colors and variety of prints. These Lil’ patterns make great baby quilts. I used Lil’ Stella for one.
ReplyDeleteForgot to list my name! 😀
DeleteThank you, Melissa. I'd love to see your Lil' Stella. I don't have your email address so I'm replying here.
DeleteThis works great as a baby quilt! I love the rosebud flannel backing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, and it turned out so pretty! Love the fabric and the panto. Is Sue your actual cousin? Looks like the plants on your windowsill are thriving. Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteIt’s so fun to have someone to sew with! I like your idea to turn a table runner pattern into a baby quilt. Pretty backing too!
ReplyDeleteNow that was smart- this is such a cute quilt! I bought a Stripology ruler and am so glad I did.
ReplyDeleteAnother great baby quilt. I generally make a quilt smaller than the pattern. Now I need to look over my table runner patterns and see if there is one I could use for a baby quilt!
ReplyDeleteFabulous job on those tiny blocks, but even more fun that you worked on it with a friend.
ReplyDeleteThis is a darling quilt, Nancy. I love the design and movement in this quilt. Wonderful job.

ReplyDeleteIt's an adorable quilt, and so perfect and soft for a little girl. How fun to sew with your cousin! It would be very special to have a relative who likes to quilt.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea to work through all those patterns. And turning the runner into a baby quilt worked out so well! Looks great!

A sweet quilt, love all the pretty colours. I've just used up the very last :( of that pink floral I see in your quilt, love love love it.
ReplyDeleteYour lil algorithm quilt is a hit! I sure recognized the pattern. The constant white was a great compliment to all those charm fabrics!--TerryK@OnGoingProjects
ReplyDeleteThat looks great, Nancy.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a very complicated design, but knowing GE Designs, there will be an easy way to do it!
Another great way to use up those charm squares,
