I promised a picture of the blocks I'm using in the 2 baby quilts I need to make. I'm using the same colors on both of them and will most likely make them both using the same pattern. One quilt will go to my niece and one will go to DH's nephew. Neither of them know each other and they don't live in the same area, so I feel safe in making them just alike.
These blocks went together very easily. I'm using a 6 inch finished and a 3 inch finished block. If you are interested, I am using a pattern I found online at www.About.com. You can find the pattern and instructions here. Janet Wickell is the designer and/or contributor of the instructions. My thanks to her for sharing!
At this point, I think I am simply going to alternate these two blocks. I'll also be making the larger 6 inch block in the same 4 colors I used in that smaller block. Of course.....I reserve the right to change my mind as I get the blocks all sewn together.

Those little babies will be so happy and content in these quilts...just knowing love and caring was sewn in each portion of the creation.

Nice baby quilts! I've looked around at about.com and they have some good stuff there. And I love your clematis!
I love the print in that fabric, is it flannel? Lucky babies!
Belvie, these are going to be such lovely baby quilts. I made a bowtie quilt once, but mine was from a different pattern. You picked great colors for the quilt. I am looking forward to seeing the finished quilts. Have a good day. Winona
Such sweet looking blocks these are and I am sure the quilts will be just as sweet and cherished for many years. I just love the bowtie block.
Very nice! I just love those fabrics that you used!!!

Those are going to be some lucky babies you have entering the clan. I too love the butterfly prints you have chosen. The color palette is so soft. From what I can tell, that pattern to make the bow ties is a lot easier than having to set in all those "Y" seams. Hope you are having a good quilting day.
