Cherries Buttons and Bows Quilt
The finished quilt is 42” x 42” , perfect as a wallhanging or a sweet naptime quilt for a little girl.
This quilt is the perfect little girlie quilt. It can be used as a wallhanging, table cloth for tea parties or a junior bed quilt. Easily adapted to big girl bed size, just add another row of blocks – remember to purchase additional fabric.
Quilted with a flower and leaf design, Cherries, Buttons and Bows has single buttons* sewn in the center of the flowers, and a cluster of three small buttons sewn in the center of the leaves. The sashing borders are quilted with a chained heart. The quilt is finished with a 1 1/2” pink gingham ruffle and blue fabric bows.
Quick cutting, simple sewing instructions make this quilt fun and easy to complete.

*An alternative to buttons would be to applique fabric yo-yo’s in place of the buttons. You should have sufficient scraps left over from the project to create as many yo-yo’s as you need.
