Modern Chevron Baby Quilt

I now have a finish on my
Modern Chevron Baby Quilt.
All 306 squares are happily sewn together.

46" X 58"
Kristy of You Had Me At Bonjour provides a free pattern and wonderful tutorial, clear down to the quilting and binding.

My blue and neutral scrap baskets are a little smaller.

Such a great way to use what you have.
I'm all about stash busters right now.

Won't this be a nice addition to a little boys room?
Next step is to make a backing and to quilt the quilt, which I am going to attempt myself.
Machine quilting is not my strong suit, but with Kristy's great instructions, I think it quite possible.
