Pink Penguin Party

Cindy · January 4, 2022, 12:23am

I made Elizabeth Hartman’s Penguin Party for our youngest grand daughter this Christmas. Normally I would have used much brighter pinks but her mommy prefers softer, pastel shades.

I had planned to make five rows but changed my mind after I was finished the 25 penguins so incorporated one on the back. The penguin fabric on the back is flannel.

Personalized with her name, which I blacked out.

Tried something different by putting fancy fabric on the corners and solid for the rest of the border. While the length of each piece is the same, I started them in random spots. Made extra work but I like the effect.

Adorable! I love the way you did the back.

Thanks! I’m not usually a fan of pieced backs but after doing this one and the dinosaur for our other grand daughter, I’m becoming a fan.

I think this should be your signature.

Absolutely adorable! Il ove that the penquins are just a bit fuzzy in flannel and the clever corner detail.

When I read your comment it made me reword what I’d written. The front penguins are cotton, the penguin fabric on the back is flannel.

I love the way you back your quilts with a small pop of surprise blocks! The penguins are pretty in pink.
