Little Four-Patch

I had a little red and white four patch.  And I had in mind to make a little doll quilt.  I put the two together.  In the photo below the four patches are laying on my ironing board.  I was playing with layout and color placement.


I sewed them together with alternating light blocks and put a brown border around the whole quilt.  I finished quilting it today and now I'm working on the binding.


I started this quilt a week ago.  It's been a quick little quilt to work on because I already had most of the colored blocks cut already for a quilt-along in that I didn't quilt along with after all.  Before binding and washing/drying it measures about 16" x 22".

I hope to finish it in a day or two so I can get it in the mail to my granddaughter.

Thanks, ladies.
