"The Baby Quilt that I will be using is one of my favorite patterns. It is from Me & My Sisters Design and is called Simple Cakes 123. It is Layer 1.
It is comprised of rectangles, leaving many options for Ruler work designs. I have chosen to do Ovals in a variety of sizes, for their beauty & simplicity" ~ Diane
