Our designer Pat shows beautiful style in creating a baby quilt, Pink Delight, for her granddaughter Ellie. The centre of this simple quilt is made up of strip-pieced four-patch units and squares. With delicate colours and simplicity in the pattern, it is a great starter quilt or a project to be done for the grandchildren, using an easy colour swap for the boys.
