Only Pink and White for GGD
 

My great granddaughter (age 10 and ultra "girly") has asked me to make a pink and white quilt for her bed. (It's twin size bed).

I know, I know........it should be easy. But I want this to be special, and I'm a novice.:o

Any ideas on what would be a particularly good pattern for this?

TIA,

Are either of your fabrics going to have focus print, if so Jenny Doan's "falling charms" would make a wonderful girly quilt. The tutorial in on the Missouri Star Quilt Company's website.

I agree about the Falling Charms quilt. It would be beautiful done in pinks and white. I am going to make myself a quilt in pinks and white. I was going to do a string quilt but I think I may try the Falling Charms instead. LOL!!

The above suggestion are good but did you just want to buy two fabrics. If so you could do a D9P with just two colors. You could also do something with Flying Geese. They may look hard but Eleanor Burns of Quilt in a Day makes them so easy to make. Good Luck. She will love it no matter what because you made it with a whole lot of love.

if you use two pinks and one white, you can make a darling sunbonnet sue.

Missouri Star Quilt Co also has a pattern for Katie's Quilt - that is really cute- I just got a new "Quilters World" quilt magazine and they have a really cute quilt that has applique elephants on it. You could also make a plain quilt and add cute appliques.

Use many pinks and whites and you'll have a very "warm", aesthetically appealing quilt.

The picture is a bit redder than the actual quilt, but you would choose your own colors.

Big thanks to each of you for your wonderful suggestions. Hmmmm, now, which one to go with.......:confused:
I've done the falling charms, and love the look. I've always wanted to do a Sunbonnet Sue, so that's a really good thought too. Loved all your suggestions, will give this more thought and will try and post a pic when it's finished.
Thanks again!!
