I have been blown in so many different directions in the past couple weeks, I think I'm sailing in circles. Or perhaps I'm stuck in my very own Bermuda Triangle?
This is not the idea I woke up with the other morning and began to crank out. This top wasn't even on my radar until this morning, when I got a phone call about a returned invitation to a baby shower next weekend...for twins.

I have this quilt for a boy, but a girly baby-ish quilt? Nothing in the inventory at the moment.

Fortunately, I had been scrounging for scraps recently and found leftovers from a very old Yellow Brick Road project. There were some completed blocks, and the rest of the pieces had been cut already. Talk about a no-brainer!

This has been pieced over about six years on three different machines, all with different ideas of a consistent quarter-inch seam allowance. As a result there are pinches, and puckers, and mismatched seams -- nothing that a little strategic quilting won't hide. This is not my best work.
But it is some of my fastest, and that's all that matters at this point.

I must say, I absolutely love the colors! Great for a cute little baby quilt!
I adore the colors too! Lucky twins
Trying to catch up with my commenting. The "leftovers" made the perfect bright and fun baby quilt. Love the stain glass quilt with all its cheery fabrics. The grid really sets it off.
I think this quilt is so cute and bright! (If you wash it after you quilt it, you'll never see those puckers and pinches.) This is a perfect little-girl quilt! How lucky that you had all the parts and pieces - Wow!
