I have been commissioned by a friend to make a baby quilt. The nursery the quilt is being made for is going to be purple / lilac, and after reviewing options, we settled on making a baby sized version of my Lucent quilt pattern. My friend really liked the idea of starting with the fabric selection for the center and then coordinating from there, so that is just how we picked and selected the fabric. These are the fabrics that I will be working with:

Wow, that’s going to be beautiful! Lucky baby. 🙂
Beautiful fabric choices, and they all co-ordinate so well with your pattern.
That’s so lovely! They should be really happy with it.
What a fab fabric selection, i love the colours and the prints. It’s going to be gorgeous
Perfect for a little girl.
That is going to be a beautiful baby quilt! I like the greens and purples they go well together.
I love your block and fabric choices, so I’m eager to see your finished quilt. I could go for a nap/lap size quilt like this for myself!
This will be a beauty…great pattern and lovely fabrics for a special someone.
Ooh, that’s going to be divine! Love the fabric choices!
Neat! I like baby quilts that don’t scream “Baby!” and will be used for a long time. What size will this finish? Great fabric selection. At first I thought the center fabric might be a little out of your comfort zone, but it has only enough to be the perfect focal print.
That is so pretty!!
That’s going to be a perfect baby quilt. I’ve been toying with the idea of making a quilt using bright greens and purples. We see the Magic Kingdom’s Wishes fireworks every evening and they use that combination of colors (along with white) and it’s always my favorite. I like that it looks well using lighter shades/pastels. It’s going to be an adorable baby quilt.
Love it! It looks beautiful!!
Well that’s going to be pretty! Soft pastels are something I’ve wanted to try! This quilt is going to be a wonderful addition to the nursery and a beautiful ‘accessory’ to wrap a sweet little baby in!
ohhh my that is going to be simply beautiful, great colors!!!!
Wonderful fabric choices! This will be a lovely quilt that the child won’t outgrow. Really pretty.
Oh Yvonne, those fabrics make me smile! Perfect for a nursery but just beautiful for anything, really. Can’t wait to see the finished project, hope you share it.
Good Morning Yvonne! These are such lovely fabrics and in the layout, wow they are going to create a gorgeous quilt! Thank you so much for sharing and have a fantastic creative day!
What an adventurous mother-to-be! This is a great assortment of colors–and will be a wonderful quilt in your Lucent pattern.
Very nice! That is a beautiful fabric to start from, great design and colors to work with.
Love your Lucent pattern and these fabrics will be fabulous in it.
Love the lilac, mint combination! These will really make your pattern shine 🙂
i love the colours but the pattern is too much for a baby quilt as they love it when playtime comes and it ends on the floor and they look at all the patterns so I make sure the minimum size is 5″ squares! My wee grandson now 7 months loves playing on his and pointing at the various animals or birds! So two in one fun, hahahaha! But I love your pattern for a nice knee rug for Age Concern, some nice lady will love the colours etc!
This is going to be beautiful. I love the soft colors and prints.
This is a perfect combination – soft colors, kid-friendly prints but a grown-up pattern. I am sure this will be loved and cherished for a long time.
