Chevron Baby Quilt & Card

Our niece had her fourth child this month, a baby girl (lucky little girl - she has three older brothers!) so I thought I'd try my hand at making this quilt (can you call it a quilt when the fabric comes already quilted??) and a coordinating card:



Tuck in a pink teddy bear & it's ready to go.
The finished size of the quilt is 35"x42"; a good size to be used as a changing pad, play mat or quilt. I followed the tutorial by Amanda at: http://www.jedicraftgirl.com/2014/06/riley-blake-blog-tour-baby-play-mat-tutorial-with-matching-zipper-pouch.html. This quilt is so quick & simple because it uses Riley Blake's quilted cotton fabric (chevron) that I purchased online at Hawthorne Threads. To make the extra wide binding (5"), I followed this tutorial that Amanda provided: http://www.mccallsquilting.com/content_downloads/Making_and_Applying_Extra_Wide_Binding_WEB_BONUS.pdf.
