Another busy week with Easter preparations but I did find time on Friday to make one yellow string block. What an array of yellow prints and hues! Bright sunny yellow, golden yellow, buttery yellow and every shade in between!
I found a gummy bear quilt in Myra Harder's Nap and Nod Adorable Baby Quilts. A friend's granddaughter just loves the Gummy Bear songs and is often seen dancing away to the tunes. When I saw the pattern I immediately knew I had to make it for her. Gummy bears are cut out of Minky or fleece and need to be appliqued. I bought Minky for the backing so it should be a great little quilt for nap time. Here's the layout - note the two adorable yellow gummy bears. I think the polka dot background just makes it fun and youthful.
I'll be linking up with soscrappy and checking out some blogs to see what others have been busy doing. Just one more yellow week and then time for a new colour! What will it be?

Nice string blocks; all the shades of yellow give them depth. I've never heard of gummy bears; we have jelly bears that are the same shape but they're for eating! Anyway it looks like a really cuddly quilt for a little girl.
Lovely blocks and those bears are so cute.
There's a gummy bear song? :) The quilt is darling and sure to be loved. And string blocks are so useful and the yellow ones are very cheerful.
Gummy bears - what a great idea.
