Herringbone Quilt

 This quilt is for my good friend Janae and her long-awaited baby boy. This pattern is just made out of half-square triangles, so it looks more difficult than it really is. I'm digging this color scheme for a boy right now.

I think the final measurements were 34" by 52" or something weird like that.

 

I'm not sure why this picture won't turn. The back is a navy and cream minky and is so incredibly soft. It was a pain and a half to quilt with. Since they live in Phoenix, I didn't want the quilt to weigh much so I went without batting. That resulted in quite some trouble with the tension on my machine. After a few different tries I ended up quilting it in the ditch, something I never do!

 

 

For the binding I used this stripe that's already on the bias-perfect!

 

I'm so glad that I got to deliver the quilt in person and meet the little guy. He was so soft and cuddly!
