Speedy Baby 2~Free Pattern

If you're visiting us from Quilting Gallery, FreePatterns or the Golden Thimble, be sure to check out our other freebies and tutorials! Thanks for visiting us! There's nothing speedy about HAVING a baby, but keeping it warm, cozy and loved should never take too long. Here's Number 2 in what I guess is the Speedy Baby series. :)

It's hard to take a cute picture of a flat quilt, so you'll just have to use your imagination with these other graphics to get a sense of it. Are you feeling it, yet? Speedy, huh?


I made this one out of the sweet and soft Giggles line of flannels. I've said this before and I'll say it again, these are SOFT flannels. We are minkee fans but this flannel is definitely in the running for 2nd place.

Click on the pattern here to download this free pattern! I made up another coloring, if you aren't quite into the bright and bold of Ginger Blossom. Here's a nice mellow Wee Play combo. Also, we have some great Wovens that would be perfect for a baby boy!!

  4. Thank you! I love speedy things especially ones that are this cute.
    I love Ginger Blossom as much as the next girl but the Wee Play version has me drooling. I love the coloring.

  5. Really cute quilt. Love easy baby quilts. Too fussy baby quilts overwhelm. I can think how cute this would be in so many fabrics.

  15. I really like that you have given two different colourings for this quilt - the soft, paler tones and the more vibrant. Certainly gives one some ideas. Thank you,

  17. Sorry for the newbie question but what is the seam allowance on this. Got my fabric and can't wait to start my first quilt!

  18. Hi,

    I'm new to quilting and I love the "Speady
    Baby 2" Pattern. Now that I have all of the pieces cut out, I added the sizes without the seams and it doesn't total 45' x 45". What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks,

    Sil

  20. I came across you site last week & made the speedy baby quilt, I'm a beginner & had forgotten about a baby shower that was coming up & made yours, it came out beautiful & everyone loved it, Thank you for posting the instructions. I also finished the speedy baby quilt 2 top last night & that came out really nice also.
    Thanks again, Jessica in NY
