sweet squares | a quilt for Clara

Olga and Cal welcomed their third baby recently and Clara needed a quilt just like big sister Lucia (see her quilt here) and big brother Leon (see his here). I decided to make her quilt in the same style as theirs, concentric squares. You don't really need a pattern for this but I think I used one initially and now I don't know where the inspiration came from! I chose warm colors and some cute animal and floral prints, including one that I also used in Lucia's quilt, the burnt orange and cream animal print. The back is a really soft cotton lawn fabric that I thought I would make a garment out of eventually until I came to terms with the fact that I wasn't and realized it would be great as a baby quilt back!
