A baby quilt

Annually our quilt group gives baby quilts to unwed mothers living in a group home. This project is always a struggle for me because I don't usually buy novelty or bright fabrics.

After seeing some of Angela's quilts, I was more interested in the project this year. I had thought about doing a more elaborate quilt, but part of the reason I struggle with this project is because my sewing time seems to be so limited. What's quicker than a simple 9-patch?

Very cute. Very simple. Very DONE! And for a needed ministry too, what could be better?
