While I was pregnant with Maggie, Beccy picked out some fabric for me to use to make a new quilt for Maggie's bedroom. I had told her that I was thinking of lavender and yellow. When I arrived at Beccy's house she had a stack of beautiful fabric waiting for me. I then picked out a pattern to use up the fabric. It was the first time I have picked out a pattern after the fabric was already chosen and I found it a challenge. I picked out a tutorial from Crazy Mom Quilts called "The Future's So Bright." However, I keep going back and forth in my mind about whether it will turn out great or be a complete mess. I guess I will have to keep putting everything together in order to find out. This quilt will be my first quilt set on point and I love learning something new with each quilt I make.
So far, I have cut out all of the pieces for the top and have sewed the setting squares as well as the smaller purple 4 patch squares. This week, while Greg is gone, I hope to complete the purple blocks and start on the yellow 4 patch squares.

I think it has potential to be a beautiful quilt! Can't wait to see the finished product.
