Another Quick Baby: Barn Swallow

A pile of scraps and THIS VIDEO TUTORIAL got me started.

In no time at all I had a quilt. It uses 36 blocks and finishes at 35″ square–a nice symmetry there.

I can see using this pattern again. It would work for many different applications.

For now it goes in the donation pile. YAY! No bored babies if they sleep under this quilt.

  1. Love your quilt. I looked at the block and thought it was made with 7 squares and 2 HST’s. I watched the video and saw how it should be done. But if I make it I’ll do it how I ‘thought’ it was done haha. Thanks for sharing your quilt and video link 🙂

  2. When I first looked at the design I thought if bats. I think I’ll try it with halloween themed items. Thank you for the ideas.

  3. I like the colors and it really does feel like birds flying out from the center. Plus, that would be a good block for Miss R’s sampler, as we are working on HSTs now.

  4. Love the ‘radiating’ look of this, and your color choices really make it special. Thanks for sharing the video. I have lots of 2.5″ leftover binding pieces, and this looks like a great use for them!

Thanks for taking the time to comment. It is nice to hear from you.
