Sunday Stash Pink/Coral/Grey

Way back in September I showed you two quilts I made for friends that recently had babies.  The babies didn't stop there!  My best friend was due the end of January and obviously I was going to make her a quilt.  She had a hard time deciding the color scheme for the nursery and finding a quilt pattern she liked but between Christmas and January we finalized a honeycomb pattern with a pink/coral/grey scheme.


I ordered these January 29th, just under the wire before my fabricfast began :)  The bundle on the left is Marie Antoinette by Northcott.  The bundle on the right is Minimalista in Watermelon. I love the pop of coral it adds to the subdued pinks and greys.

I'll be honest, I was concerned about them but when they arrived and I laid them out they were perfect and reminded me of my friend completely.  A little traditional and soft with a hit of bold modern thrown in. Baby Audrey was born two weeks ago and I plan on visiting in March (they moved to California ::sad face::).  So my goal for February's ALYOF is to complete this quilt.

Linking up with Sunday Stash and ALYOF!

    Lovely colour combo! Isn't it funny how no one has pastel-y baby quilts covered in duckies & bunnies anymore? :)

    I just used Minimalista to make my daughters floor cushion. You can see it in Instagram at sarahkrothe. She requested coral and I had no coral fabrics, so lucky we found these whilst on holidays after Christmas.
