The Disapearing Four Patch blocks I made to donate to Sandy relief kind of intrigued me, and I wanted to try them with a variety of prints for a scrappy look. I decided to use them in this baby quilt for the new son of my “nephew”, the son of my friend and college roommate.
I used three baseball prints and some fabrics I thought coordinated, for a total of six fabrics. (I won’t say I hang onto fabric, but one of these baseball prints was used in the nephew’s high school graduation quilt…)
I still have five more blocks to make, hopefully today, but I think I like how this is coming out. It seems to have lots of energy.
I’m linking up to WIP Wednesday at Freshly Pieced (isn’t the new look pretty?).

I love it! Perfect gift for a sports fan.

Isn’t that appropriate that you can use some of the same fabric in quilts for both your nephew and his son? That is a neat, crisp look for those fabrics.
