Color Blocks -- Hugs and Kisses

January's Color Block quilt is Hugs and Kisses.

2025 will be a year of baby quilts; this small, simple quilt is quick to piece, quilt, and give away!

I pulled out some gray and blue Color Blocks from my stack and had this quilt pieced in no time!

Grab a few of your Color Blocks (or make some new ones), download the pattern, and stitch this sweet baby quilt.

Choosing Your Fabrics

I plan to make two quilts and have arranged my two selections of fabric.

This first selection has a striped fabric in it.  If you choose a stripe for fabric one or two, be sure to watch my live videos before you start stitching.  I'll address how to piece some of the steps to make sure your stripes are in the direction you want them to be!

This second range of fabric uses a novelty print.  If you want to use a focus fabric, Fabric 5 will show it off best.
