Do you do the "Schnibbles Parade"? I just started and am hooked! I didn't think I'd enjoy these smaller quilts, but I'm finding that I really do have use for smaller ones, especially if I pick the right kind of fabric!This month the pattern is our choice....and although I could use my "Morning Joe" as this month's entry, I decided to start another one of Miss Rosie's patterns called "Bungalow". My printer didn't do the pattern picture much justice so when I started cutting I said to myself "self, this is starting to look like log cabin cutting" so lo and behold, I was right!
I had a charm pack which I thought was enough, which it wasn't, so I had to cut into a layer cake that I had set aside for another project, but it's ok, I think I'll be fine.....
I used an old Moda fabric called "Hoopla" which is probably a couple of years old and a white on white for the background fabric. All in all the quilt is super cute and going to be perfect for a little girl.....I'm not sure yet how I'll quilt it but since it's only 43 inches square, I think I'll do it myself. I have plenty of the pretty pinkish/red floral fabric that I used in the 5 centers to use for the backing and there is a tiny purple and while bud fabric in there that I can use as binding so it's just a matter of getting it sandwiched now and get to quilting.....

So pretty!! I'm making the same Schnibbles for the parade but using "Noteworthy" by Sweetwater. I have all the blocks done; just need to get them into rows. I plan on hanging mine on my dining room wall this Spring.
how cute!
I think some girl would love to get this quilt! At 43", it's a little larger than most of the Schnibbles, but that works out even better for a child. I hadn't heard of the fabric you used, but it works really well in this pattern.
