Baby bunny quilt



Completed top for baby bunny quilt.

The base designed with double pin wheel blocks 

6x6 inch blocks

13  4.5"x4.5" bunny fabrics which are cut into 4 quarters each as shown here


13  4.5"x4.5" squares inyellow spotted fabric also cut into 4 triangles each 


26 4 1/8" x 4 1/8" blue squares then cut into 2 triangles 


As the bunny fabric is directional I divided the triangles into the four different directional triangles, they then have to be stitched together with the yellow triangles - from sketch you can see what side they have to be pierced.


When all have been pieced then add the blue triangle to create a square


Then trim the squares to exactly 3 ½ x3 ½"
Use the ruler to make sure midpoint is exactly 1 3/4 


When all are trimmed then piece four squares together to create one pinwhee, remember the directional bunnies so one from each pile.

Now cut 12   6½ x 6½" bunny squares

And piece the blocks together watch out for directions of the bunny.

Two bunnies are cut and hand appliquéd on

I used this template, transferred to freeze paper and cut out and ironed onto the fabric on wrong side cut with a generous seam allowance for turning and hand appliquéd. If machine appliqué cut without seam allowance.
