A few years ago we went out to California for a friends wedding. While we were there I took pictures of the center pieces thinking I would make a quilt for the couple using the colors of those centerpieces. I found a free pattern that I thought would be good and saved it to my computer. I bought the fabric shortly after and never got around to making the quilt.(as of 2018 Free Spirit has closed their doors and this pattern is no longer available on the internet - that I can find)
Last August I started grad school and was completely unable to sew for the 8 months of school. So for the summer I vowed I would try to complete the projects I owed myself. So I started sewing.
After sewing all the blocks for the intended wedding quilt, I realized that this was not a color scheme that I would want in my living room and repurposed the blocks into two smaller quilts for some other friends who are having twins.
We don't know what sex the babies will be and the color scheme felt perfect for a unisex blanket set.
