Introducing my newest line of fabric, Giggle & Grow for Andover Fabrics. Click on the link below to download the panel quilt pattern featuring prints from the line. This is a quick and easy quilt pattern that you can finish in no time. I also designed this group with the hope that it will grow with your kids. I plan to hang my finished quilt in our play room!
My second line arrived in stores in September 2011. I am so excited to share it with all of you! “Little One” features two color stories: boy & girl (with the boy color story also the neutral one for those of you who don’t know if it will be a boy or girl). I have designed a bib panel and a collection of prints including cute rattles, stars, and dots.
I am the most excited to share my series of FREE BABY QUILT PATTERNS that I’ve called the “9 Months til Baby” program. In essence, I have designed 9 different projects that you can make for baby. And yes, a baby does need 9 different things! Each of the projects serves it’s own purpose. Getting Started in projects 1-3 is the Bibs with Add-itude, Soft Blocks, and Wrist Rattles. You can make all of these projects from one Little One Fat Quarter Bundle.
Currently I am addicted to making the soft blocks. They are so easy and they really use up my scraps!

Projects 4-6 are “Growing Fast” and include a Growth Chart, Stroller Quilt, and Appliqued Onesies. I had a blast creating the rick-rack bottom on the onesie. It looks so cute on Izzy!
The Stroller Quilt is great for keeping baby entertained. Just clip a couple toys or the paci onto the quilt using those toy rings. It works great! And, you can make projects 4-6 from just one Little One Fat Quarter Bundle. You just need to add a little solid fabric for the Growth Chart plus Binding and Backing on the Stroller Quilt.

Project 7 is an adorable Welcome Baby Banner. When I designed it, I was envisioning seeing it hanging outside the house when mom and baby came home from the hospital. Then, I would hang it in the nursery. To personalize it, you can add baby’s information to the back of the handmade fabric tag. Include name, date of birth, height, weight, time, etc… What a fun keepsake that you could use for more than one child. Just make a new tag for each kid!
Or, you can also make it without the tag!

Hopscotch is pattern #8 in the series. This is a fun quilt that reminds me of grade-school and playing hopscotch during recess. I wanted to create something unique and more modern for the line with this pattern. You can’t even tell it is a baby quilt unless you look closely at the fabrics. My mom gave me the idea to actually use it for playing hopscotch. I’m sure my son Jack, who is almost 4, would think that is a great idea!
I love the soft gray in the girl version!

And finally Little Star Quilt is the last of the 9 patterns. With this project I wanted to show that you can cut the bib panel apart and use it as blocks in a quilt. Either of the quilts can be made from one Little One Fat Quarter Bundle plus yardage for the Solid star points. So, you can choose if you want a scrappy border or not. The larger size is great for a play quilt on the floor!
The girl version features the optional scrappy border.

Thanks for sharing your quilt designs with ‘us’. Maybe I too, can use up my stash. LOL.
Best of luck- it seams that whenever I use some up I always add a bit more in the process!
I am just finding your website and all the EASY quilts and table runners, etc. to make. Thanks for all the fun, quick ideas. they will work for me.
Hey Karen, you are welcome! Quick and easy is my favorite way to sew!!
Love the Playing Tag Project – can you tell me the fabric line used in your picture? Many Thanks!
Hi Marilyn, thank you so much! That was really a popular pattern and kit that we sold using my second line of fabric called “Little One” by Robert Kaufman Fabrics. The line is no longer in print, but I do have a little bit of it in my personal stash. You need 10 fat quarters to make the top of the playing tag quilt. If you are interested, send me an email and I can see what I would have available for you to order through our shop. katie@baywindowquiltshop.com Thanks!
Not sure if you received my reply from yesterday or not – seems to keep wanting to go via Facebook???
I would love to see what you have available for this project – perfect for my great granddaughter. Let me know and I will place order.
Thanks again,
Marilyn
Hi Marilyn, yes I did get your comment yesterday. I got stuck at home with my daughter as wasn’t able to check my yardage at my office. I’m pretty sure I have a fat quarter bundle of the pink/aqua/green colorway already put together. It would have the 10 fat quarters in it. I can also see if I would have the stripe with the words on it for the binding. I think that called for 1/2 yard. It says “to baby with love” on it and works great on the bias since it is a stripe. I will email you today with exactly what I have. Thanks!
Perfect – have to run out for a bit but will reply as soon as I can. I really appreciate your efforts re this.
Oh Yes – would definitely be interested – would be perfect for my great granddaughter – let me know and I will place the order.
