Scrappy Trip Around the World

Quilters have been making "Trip Around The World" quilts forever.

I'm not a big fan.

But a Scrappy Trip Around The World?

And with a chapel baby expected in June?

Sign me up :D

Alexa didn't know the baby's gender,

but she assured me that blue is her favorite color.

Mine too!

And scraps... I have a'plenty, with a soft turquoise for the backing.

  

I used three different darker blues for the longest diagonals in each block,

to tie it all together.

And a few rogue squares that only appear once - a little eye-spy for me!

The photos don't seem to capture the warmth

of the blues and turquoises adequately.

It's just a little quilt... for a little baby.

Maybe for the car or the stroller :D

Alexa seems pleased.

And I added an Old Navy sleeper,

to remind this Canadian-American

of her American side ;D
