Rowan’s Baby Quilt
Published by Shana | Filed under Free, Patterns, Quilting
This quilt was inspired by one I saw at the International Quilt Study Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska. Mom, my aunt, my grandparents and I went when I was home for Thanksgiving.
This version is for the newest little one in my life, Rowan. It’s 40″ square
I’m not going to write up instructions, but here’s the Excel spreadsheet that shows construction and has some notes. If you have questions, feel free to drop me a line and I’ll answer it here. Close up of the fabric is here.

Hey – if I sent you a photo of Rowan enjoying her quilt, would it make it up on your blog? And did I tell you, the kids got scoped out for a modeling/acting agency. I said no eventually, but the agent told me to keep thinking about it and call her if we changed our minds. She was convinced Logan was going to be a star!

Of course I’d put up action shots. Send them over.
Logan’s already a star! No need for an agent

It looks great, especially for a first quilt! I hope Mom and Baby get lots of use out of it.

Hello, I just wanted to drop you a line and say Thank you SO MUCH for posting your spreadsheet on the measurements of your quilt! I made one for a baby shower that I had a week’s notice about, and it was fantastic. This is the link to my craftster post, if you are interested in pictures. Thanks again!

Hi I tried to get the excel spreadsheet and it says I am looking for something that is not there. Can you help me out with the instructions for this quilt? I really like it

I tried to d/l the spreadsheet for the quilt but the page is saying it is not there. I really like the quilt and want to make it if the pattern is still available. Thanks for the great patterns on your site.

Sorry about that. The link got broken when I rebuilt the site. I’ve corrected it above.

I couldn’t open Rowan’s quilt.
