Project: Baby Quilt For Sale

Well, here goes nothing- This has been a fun project to make. The pattern is called All In Knots by Fons and Porter. I altered the design by making it 4 blocks instead of the 6 that they have in this link:

It was fun picking fabrics and figuring out where they should go:



I cut my strips out and started putting them up. 
I love when a quilt starts taking shape:
