Ok, one more baby kit. Ok, maybe another one very soon but let’s just start with this one. It deserves a post all on its own. It’s so stinkin’ sweet it makes my teeth hurt!
This is Elea Lutz Milk, Sugar, Flower line from Riley Blake. I ❤️❤️ her fabrics soooo much! MSF is reminiscent of vintage fabrics and nursery decor. Sweet and full of cottage charm. Magpies, strawberries, & little bunnies and kitties all rolled up into my most favorite line of hers yet…at least until the next one comes out in April. And let me tell ya…I’m pretty excited about that one too!
I figured what better way to show off these prints than in the Lucky Stars quilt pattern by Atkinson Designs. I’ts scrappy, just they way these fabrics would have been back in the day.
This pattern is super simple too. And don’t forget to check out the blog post I wrote about an easy way to square up your stars without the fuss. You can find that by clicking HERE.
Goodness, I just love retro and 30’s prints…The stars set on an aqua dottie background. I think that extra touch makes it feel even more vintage.
This KIT can be purchased with or without the backing fabric. With the backing included, you’ll recieve a complete quilt kit, the fabrics for the top, the pattern, backing & binding. Each option can be found in the SewModDesigns Etsy shop.
Even better is that this quilt finishes to a child’s lap quilt, measuring 45″ x 60″. So that means the quilt will be with them from baby to toddler to child…a keepsake. Or if you’re like me, you’re keeping it for yourself!!
Daisy even loves this quilt!
Create your handmade heirloom for a special little girl!
Rodeo Rider kits are saddled up and ready to ride off to a special rootin’ tootin’ baby!!
I made this popular Backyard Baby pattern in two color ways…pink for the Cowgirl & blue for the Cowboy. I love the swirls and stars quilting Paige did for me.
Tossed horshoes and cowboy boots are scattered among stars, horses and hats. This western quilt kit is sure to please that lil’ babe. Use it as a stroller blankie, crib blankie, or nursery decor.
These would be a perfect shower gift for twins!
Each KIT comes complete with pattern, fabrics for the top, backing & binding. Batting NOT included. KIT can be found in the SewModDesigns Etsy shop. Finished quilt measures 40″x40″.
And don’t forget…a posted tutorial on how to add the optional flange can be found by clicking HERE.
Come and get em’ y’all!
We’ve been working really hard to get some new kits together for the special little ones in your life!
This first one is called ‘Sweet Baby Girl’ and it’s from the Sweet Baby Girl fabric line from Riley Blake. The monkeys & frogs in the this line are so cute and the alphabet fabric is adorable with the toys mixed in!
We kit this strip quilt up often and it’s perfect for beginners and experienced quilters alike. A fast quilt that can be made completely DIY style.
The quilt is easy enough to quilt at home with straight line quilting on each side of the seam allowances.
The Sweet Baby Girl complete KIT can be found in the SewModDesigns Etsy shop for $40 plus shipping. Everything is included in your kit except the batting. You even get to select your favorite backing..

A quilt for the future sports star…Play Ball Baby Quilt KIT.
This was my first time kitting the Radio Way pattern from JayBird Quilts. This was just about the easiest thing I’ve sewn! Half of the cutting is already done since it’s made from a jelly roll so this sews up super fast!
Measuring at 40″x40″ and having all of the straight lines on the quilt, make ‘straight line’ quilting easy. Paige actually quilted this one for me with stars and loops so it’s definitely another great quilt for beginners and experienced quilters.
The fabric line is Play Ball from Riley Blake with every sport boys love…baseball, football & basketball. Every piece of the line is featured in the quilt top.
The backing is your choice of tossed jerseys in navy or the Play Ball main print. The complete KIT including the top, backing, binding & pattern is $40 plus shipping and can be found HERE.
Christmas is fast approaching but there’s still time to whip up a special handmade gift for the baby in your life.
The Equilateral quilt kit that I kitted for the boys is a popular seller so why shouldn’t the girls get as just a cute quilt as the boys? The Wildflower Meadow line from Melly & Me and Riley Blake Fabrics is perfect for the triangles.
Comfort baby in all the goodness of theses adorable nature friends. The focus fabric in this line features hedgehogs, sweet little bluebirds and playful squirrels all tossed amoung the pretty wildflowers! Aren’t these little hedgehogs adorable!?!
The quilt top colors of this KIT are bright pink, blues, and yellows. The backing is blue wildflowers on white with tiny pink birds tied all together with a hot pink binding.
Complete KIT comes with enough fabric to make the quilt top, binding, backing and free quilt instructions. Batting NOT included. Quilt measures approx. 35″x 42.5″. $42 plus shipping.
Pattern includes step-by-step instructions for assembly. Equilateral triangle quilts are fun and fast to make. After you make one using the pattern, you’ll want to make more! The quilt can either be cut using the template provided in the pattern or using the Creative Grids 60 degree triangle ruler found here. The Equilateral tutorial can be found here if you’d like more info on how to assemble it.
Now…a new one for baby boy…Dino-Roar!
Dino-Roar is made using Riley Blake’s Dinosaur fabric line in a traditional Road To Tennessee quilt layout. A Road to Tennessee block is basically a Snowball block with only two of the corners replaced with a coordinating fabric instead of all four. So easy and perfect for any fabrics and especially scraps.
Dino-Roar uses 8 different fun prints in oranges, greens, browns & blues. There are Dinos tossed in different sizes, a sweet little leaf print and other coordinating Dino ‘egg’ prints. Kona Snow is used for the white. The binding ties it all together with Kona Chocolate.
Dino-Roar measures 45″ x 45″ and is a complete kit as well including the backing, binding and free pattern. $55 plus shipping.
The backing is available in any of the Dinosaur prints and can be selected here at the time of checkout.
Kit comes with bonus instructions for an 18″ pillow using your Dinosaur scraps! Check back tomorrow when I’ll be doing the step-by-step tutorial using a 3-1/2″ Road to Tennessee quilt block.
Easy, fast & fun and just in time for Christmas! Feel free to convo me if you have any questions.

True Blue Baby I Love You…Tips On Cutting And Assembly
“Have a whale of a good time with the fun nautical prints in the True Blue Collection featuring whimsical whales, splashing waves and fun geometrics. Anchors away!”
True Blue is designed by Ana Davis. I just love her children’s prints and Blend never, never disappoints me in the quality of their fabrics. I’ve loved every piece I’ve ever ordered from them and this is no exception! True Blue is vibrant and fun to work with.
I knew I wanted to do a strip quilt with this line. It’s perfect with the big playful whales and the baby whales in a row!
The kit is available in the Etsy shop. It includes step-by-step instructions to strip piece the quilt in no time for that special little one. Kit includes all your fabrics, binding and backing, and sews up fast for a baby shower or gift. You can easily quilt with straight lines. It’s a DIY complete project! *batting not included.
And I have some helpful tips for you if you’ve purchased the kit and are ready to start on your baby quilt.
I fussy cut the baby whales to make this quilt, but it wasn’t any trouble to do so since the fabric was printed really straight to begin with. Straighten the edge of your fabric so that the ‘white wave’ is on the cut. Line your ruler up for the 2 inches. The white wave that’s next in line should fall somewhere on that 2 inches. As you can see in the photo, my ruler lined up between the waves.
Cut your strip out and attach to the selected fabrics, taking note of the whale directions. They swim opposite each other!
After all these years sewing, I make the most basic mistakes:( Am I the only one out there that still does this?!? The seam ripper is my best friend..
Sew the strips together in pairs and trim the edges. *When sewing rows, alternate your sewing direction right to left and left to right. Alternating will keep rows straight and help prevent stretching in one direction.
I hope you have as much fun making this as I did! And if you have anymore questions about the True Blue baby quilt, don’t hesitate to ask. I’m happy to help!
