Pastel Quilt

I found this material in a  pre-cut 'layer cake' awhile back and loved the pastel colors.  It reminded me of vintage material, and what better material for a quilt?

I used a patchwork pattern called Modern Vintage from Sunnyside Designs and loved how it turned out. 
It's lighter color scheme works well for a light weight quilt on chilly spring and summer evenings.
A butterfly fabric on the back makes it's pretty on both sides.
I really like the old time look of this quilt.  Using the pre-cut material really made it come together quickly. 
Thanks for stopping by!

What a sweet quilt. I am looking for a quick pattern to make a quilt for one of my grandchildren and this looks ideal. Now to find the fabric.

This is a lovely quilt, Zenda. The pretty pastel fabrics do have a wonderful vintage look to them and the butterfly fabric on the back is perfect. Your pretty quilt looks perfect resting on your sofa.

Zenda, aren't those precut layer cakes wonderful? I have used them, charm packs, and jelly rolls and they really do help the quilt come together. Love the fabrics in this bundle! Great job! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
