Argyle Baby Quilt

My friend Amy is having a baby boy so I decided to try something different than the other quilts I made and went argyle. Here is a finished picture.

The diamonds are definitely more challenging than squares but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.  I like how easy this pattern is to change it up by choosing different colors for the diamonds and any patterned fabric for the strips. 

For the back I used minkee.  It is so soft, I loved how it looks.

On the strips, I did a raw edge so it has a frayed edge.  It was fun doing something that was a little harder.  She seemed to be happy with it, hopefully it gets a lot of use.
