I was given Tied With A Ribbon's debut fabric line to play with recently and, well, I'm pleased to say that it pepped up my creative slump.

I think it was the Woodland colourway that did the trick. It has such a calming effect.
What I love the most about this range is the panel. Words I thought I would never say about a fabric range - I usually sneeze (aaaaahh-chooo) if anyone puts a panel near me ... sorry panel lovers.
But when the panel makes me look good (I'm so vain).
With minimal effort (and lazy).
Who am I to turn my nose up? (cross snobby off the list).
When I published this little cot quilt on Instagram I got a few messages to ask if I was selling a pattern. I hadn't expected that reaction as it's such a simple (and quick) little sew - thanks to that panel.
So I thought I would whip up a quick little tutorial in this space and just share, share, share.
I'm using the word "tutorial" ... but really it's a little mud-map of cutting instructions.
I know that you clever sewing peeps out there would grasp the rest!
So rules of engagement:
1. All measurements are in inches
2. Always use a 1/4" seam
3. Measurements are cut sizes - not finished.
4. Fabric are:
 |
| Woodland Panel |
 |
| Green Trellis |
 |
| Woodland Triangle |
 |
| Woodland Stripe |
 |
| Yellow Trellis |
5. "BG" means Background in the Mud Map below
6. Follow the Mud Map below:
You're welcome to share your makes on Instagram using #thebabyshowerquilt
Here's where you can find links to the fabric
Enjoy!

PS big thanks to my hubby for squeezing his 6ft frame behind a baby quilt for these pics!
