Prairie Pinwheels Gingham Baby Quilt
This baby quilt measures 43" by 52"
Riley Blake GIngham
Medium Gingham Check for the Squares and outer border and binding
Small Gingham Check for the dimension pinwheels
Kona White Solid for the sashing
Aurifil 2021 50/2 for piecing and 40/2 for quilting
I <3 this quilt!
The prairie point pinwheels stand up for little fingers to grasp.
They even fluttered when the breeze caught them when I took these photos.
Pieced Ladder Quilt Backing
I knew I had the perfect fat quarter pieces in my stash.
Some of these FQs had already been cut into for other projects.
I like scrappy quilts and gingham is a perfect addition to any scrap quilt.
It really draws the eye and says, "Pretty!"
I really do prefer Riley Blake Gingham.
I have used others many time before and this is the best.
I am hoping to have RBG tucked into my fabric drawers for a long, long time
and that they will continue to make this classic fabric so I can keep replenishing my stash.

Center of quilt
I like these dimensional pinwheels in a baby quilt
for little fingers to grasp and play.
Here is the top.
I added an outer border of medium gray Riley Blake Gingham.
The binding is aqua medium check Riley Blake Gingham.
Here is the back.
I pieced a ladder back with the extra gingham and sashing strips
and added a cute ducky print.
Here is a closeup of the straight line quilting.
My grandbaby girl has been very busy growing this summer.

Patchwork of the Crosses Block!
This pattern is attributed to Lucy Boston.
This is my first ever EPP block!
I bought this as a kit from my friend,
Jan @ Sew and Sow Farm
from her Featherweight Quilt Co Etsy Shop
I followed Jan's Lucy Boston Block Tutorial
for piecing this block.
Jan also has a great pictorial showing how she fussy cuts these blocks ...
I have this beautiful floral border print and am planning to make a quilt.
I have fussy cut the first center for my first block.
You will be seeing more of this quilt in progress as I will be doing
a lot of slow-stitching hand-sewing in the next few months.

Thank you, Jan, for all your helpful tutorials and your beautiful block kit!

Maple Leaf Mug Rugs!
Fall is falling!
I love everything about fall.
Fall fabrics and colors are my favorites.
I found how to make these mug rugs when I spent some time
in the beautiful Green Mountains in Vermont.
At Stowe Fabric & Yarn ,
a lovely shop tucked on a side street in this picturesque town center,
they had some pretty maple leaf shaped mug rugs.
I <3 Stowe!
Butterfly helped me chose the fabrics.
Online I found this ...
Maple Leaf Mug Mug Rug Pictorial and PDF pattern @ The Quilting Board
Sew I was off and sewing my own maple leaf mug rugs.
Katniss helped.
Sew
Batting side
Trim
Cut to shape
Turn right side out and shape.
By the second one I was sewing without the paper.
I cut to size, sandwiched and then sewed.
Works for me!
I did not use the paper pattern for quilting either.
Also, I found the "v" at the bottom a little too tricky for me.
These are very pretty and coaster size.
Then I decided to simplify the pattern and make it a little larger.
I drew and cut my own pattern ...
Feel free to print for your own use.
This shape is actually the one I found in Stowe.
This one is a larger and more mug rug size.
It measures 6" from point to point.
I plan to make larger ones this fall for place mats.
I need some new fall place mats!
I hope you enjoy making some of these, too!

I do not know why I did not think I could do this kind of hand piecing.
It is sew much fun!

I do have some arthritis in my hands and it is slow going,
but I am finding this so relaxing that I am going to make a quilt!
The center of my block is not a perfect as Jan's precise stitching,
but I am pleased with my first block.
This one will probably be turned into a pillow.

I am so in love with your baby quilt I just cannot stand it! The gingham is just perfect. I just stopped by to say hi, no need to count me in your giveaway.

Fantastic quilt!!! Your fall leaves will look wonderful enlarged for placemats. Thank you for sharing your summer projects.
Your gingham baby quilt is just adorable, lucky little girl! The other projects are also great.
I follow your blog via GFC.
The pinwheel quit is ADORABLE and I love your mug rugs. You sure are one talented lady. Thanks for sharing your creations with us today!
Wow, Pat. That quilt is pinwheel peeerrrfeeect!!!!! Love it. You never disappoint. Look at that lovely EPP block. Jan does rock with those patterns. Your mug rugs are a great inspiration for fall. It's great that you decided to make your own pattern.
I'm a September girl, too! Let's celebrate. :)
Oh, and I'm a VERY happy follower.
Love the gingham quilt. So pretty!
I'm a Bloglovin follower: Nicole Sender
Oh...my! I have no words for you...ok, just one...BEAUTIFUL! All I could think, as I read, was oh....wow....oh. Not very original eh? That gingham quilt is stupendous!!! Oh, and hurry and get it tested...I sew, sew, sew want that pattern!!! xox
And f.y.i; I stalk you as many ways as I can; I'm like your third cat LOL
Oh, Pat, that Prairie Point Pinwheel quilt is gorgeous - your pictures are fantastic. So bright and cheery! I like that you used the small check for the pinwheels and the medium check for the blocks. I'ts perfect for the granddarling! Then your Lucy EPP block - I know how much work goes in to the fussy-cut, the hand-stitching, the layout... it's wonderful! Then your maple leaf mug rugs, such cuteness. Our maple leaves are turning - can't believe it's September already! Time flies when you're having fun, I suppose!
Following along.
P.S. Happy Birthday this weekend!!
first of all happy birthday for the 6th, you are catching up with me in years! What a lovely quilt for your beautiful granddaughter, I love the added pin wheels and how you get the lines so straight with the gingham is so spot on wonderful. Maple leaves are glorious too have had to make a new folder on pinterest for mug rugs. Katniss is such a beautiful cat
I am a follower on blog lovin at least I think that is how I follow you
Your quilt is just beautiful. What more can I say! Happy birthday for the 6th. Mine is the 13th so it's coming up soon.
Pat, what an adorable quilt with the touchy-feely pinwheels. They are perfect for a little one. What a perfect combo with the ginghams. I'll help you in any way I can with your pattern testing, my friend. I have my Lucy Boston book and just order the paper pieces and acrylic templates. I did a tad of EPP on a trip with Bonnie Hunter. I guess I've committed myself now. I have had my book for six months and haven't done a thing. I'm moving that direction, I love the leaf mug rugs. The only quilt I have that Mom made is a Maple Leaf quilt. The mug rugs remind of that quilt. So they are near and dear to my heart. You've been busy with some wonderful projects. Thanks for participating in the hop and being an great inspiration.

You have been so busy with lovely projects. I love the baby quilt and baby! The leaf coasters are great , I must see if I have any suitable fabric.

I love your gingham baby quilt - and your grand - darling is gorgeous!
GFC follower!
Absolutely adorable pinwheel quilt! I have no idea how you made the pinwheels three dimensional but I do know that sweet little one is going to love it! I don't do EPP because I embroider and do wool applique and just can't fit in the time to have another hand sewing passion but I always love seeing what others are making with them. And the mug rugs - what a wonderful idea! blessings, marlene
Now who couldn't love a post that features such a precious little thing like that grandbaby of yours. She is so cute! Love that pinwheel quilt and how it is 3 dimensional. My hubby needs a mug rug for his coffee cup! Thank you for sharing your projects and that sweet little girl with us. :)
absolutely stunning ....your gingham project soooo darn lovely, had me swooning....all of your projects along with your sweet cats and grand baby a nice addition to a lovely summer....happy name sake day may it be a year of memories and laughter
That baby quilt is just gorgeous. Any baby would love to hang out on it.
Amazingly beautiful pinwheel quilt! And the maple leaf mug rugs are very clever. I hope you have a very happy birthday too!
Oh well done my Friend!!! I LOVE your pinwheel quilt, that is so dang adorable!! Great job sweetie. You deserve the WOW for the day :) And your leaf's are adorable too. Just perfect for you, as I know how much you love Fall. I'm glad you found some fun in the EPP project, enjoy making a quilt with it.
LOVE IT!!! It IS just so A D O R A B L E!!!!! I love the 3-D pinwheels especially...but that gigham is to die for too! Great finish!! HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!

What a darling baby quilt Pat ! I really love that the pinwheels can be grasped by tiny hands...things like that are so important for babies as they learn. The look they get when they've grabbed and pulled it up to their mouth is so priceless ! I so admire the Lucy Boston EPP, and your mug rugs are so cute and look so pretty with those coffee mugs !

Your gingham quilt is super cute and fresh. I love it! I also like your hand piecing and your leaf mug rugs. Very nicely put together. You have had a good summer!
This is just the cutest quilt!! Love the prarie points for that added bit of fun. The leaf mug rugs are perfect for this time of year and as a few have said - enlarged for a placemat would make a great table setting.
And I totally forgot to say - Happy Birthday!!
That pinwheel quilt could not be any cuter! I love the 3d effect and.....oh..... I just love everything about it. Great leafy mug rugs. I know that Katniss and Butterfly would not let you show us anything that wasn't just perfect! Thanks for sharing it all today....and Happy Birthday! May you be blessed with many, many more happy, healthy years!

My Dear Friend as usual your quilt is so beautiful and that precious little girl will love it . The maple leafs are really cute and also coming from a land of maple leafs I think I will make some. I loved the block you did by hand . I can't do much hand sewing my fingers have actually turned to the outside of my hands from arthritis,not all of them but two most important ones. My battery is running low so I will send you blessings for now.
I follow your blog by email and always enjoy it.

What a beautiful baby quilt for a beautiful baby! I love the leaves. I can see one as a hot pad with the loop as a stem. Katniss is always such a big help but Butterfly appears to be trying to keep all the fabric. What fun company to sew with!

Why Happy Birthday tomorrow! It's also my husband's birthday, and he's turning the big 3-0! lol, he's actually nervous about it. Silly John. Lovin's to the kitties, they have worked hard helping pick out all those beautiful fabrics. I never thought EPP would be something I would want to do, but I really like these honeycombs you're working on. Thanks for peaking my interests. By the way, I would LOVE to be a tester for your pattern :) I'm sure you have quite a list of people saying so, but put me on that list for sure! Thanks for sharing your projects!

What a beautiful grandbaby! And lucky you to have so much help with your projects. :)
Happy birthday, a tiny bit early. Have a great one! Your quilt is absolutely outstanding! It would have been a beauty even without the pinwheels but that sure moved it up a notch. I just started doing some EPP and am "caught"; what an addiction! Your blocks are wonderful.
I love, love your quilt and the mug rugs! I would like to make some of the leaves in fall colors too!

You've done the world of gingham proud!! A lovely quilt. I haven't made 3D pinwheels in years, but they are fun! Your Lucy Boston block is to die for. One of my favorite patterns.

I'm working on a big project and they are just the right little project to throw into the mix when I need a little diversion.

" Hi Pat
I love your fall fun...the kitties just look so adorable modelling and presenting....lol.
The maple leaves are awesome and look relatively easy. Your fabric choices are awesome.... I can sew using them as 3-D embellishments on other quilty projects.
Keep up the fabulous work."
Happy Birthday. We were born the same year. I LOVE your Prairie Pinwheel baby quilt. I have done EPP hexies, but your pattern looks so much more interesting. As a Canadian, well, what can I say-Maple Leaf is one of my favorite designs. Your mug rugs are awesome!
Happy Birthday - even though I am a day late with that! Your baby quilt is the sweetest I have ever seen!! I love fall and your Maple Leaf coasters!
I am a follower on Bloglovn!
First since I am so late getting started on blog hopping I get to wish you a BELATED happy bday. (I am approximately one month older than you, Pat as my day is in early August) Second, how cool is that gingham pinwheel quilt? Very! I bet you won't have a bit of trouble looking for pattern testers with something that adorable as bait. What a cutie that will get to enjoy it.
Then since I get another chance in the giveaway pot, I will tell you that I happily follow in sage feeds. Those fall mug rugs are wonderful!
Hope you had a wonderful birthday. I absolutely love your Prairie Point Pinwheels quilt. It is so much fun.
And the leaf shaped coasters look like a great project for a newbie like me to tackle.
Happy Birthday dear friend, I hope that you have had a wonderful day!
You blogpost is great, I love your gingham baby quilt and you are so lucky to
have such a gorgous granddaughter.

The gingham quilt is a fresh new idea for time-honored gingham! Thanks for showing how you made the mug rugs, because I was wondering how you did it!
Your pinwheel baby quilt is wonderful. Lucky grandbaby! I think I need to add ginghams to my stash...

Loved all your quilts the gingham baby quilt is very cute....and so is you granddaughter really liked the leaf mug rug...
I love this baby quilt. Very sweet and perfect for little ones to grab!
I am playing catchup with blog hopping. I have to say your pin wheel baby quilt is just the sweetest!!! Thanks for sharing the maple leaf tutorial...I think the leaves will be turning color earlier this year with the very chilly weather we have been having...hope we have a late and long Indian summer. I know you will have a lot of eager testers, I would be thrilled if you would add my name to the list. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Happy stitching, Pauline
Happy belated birthday...I am a follower by GFC. Happy stitching!!
Hi Pat! I loved this post as much as your recent post about this adorable quilt. Grandbabies are just the best and she looks so fab laying on this work of love. I enjoyed that Katniss approved this whole wonderful project, and gingham fabrics - nothing better than those for a baby girl. Hearts all around. ~smile~ Roseanne
