Purple Patchwork Panda

The fact that I've been slacking off and playing video games instead of using my time productively and finishing projects has not stopped me from starting a new project. When I saw this fabulous panda at AJ Quilts and found out that there was going to be a quilt-along too, I just could NOT resist.

How cute is that??? There are more friends with babies on the way, and this fellow will be perfect for one of them.

AJ posted multiple color options for inspiration, but I just loved the one above. I think it is a fun gender-neutral option, which is perfect for the little mystery-baby due in June. As a bonus, I actually have those colors in my stash:

Week 4 of the quilt-along has been posted. Of course, I'm a little behind. I just finished week 1:

Hopefully, I'll be able to do some more catch-up over the weekend.

    1. Unfortunately, jen jen, I do not have the measurements anymore. :( I only ever planned to make one, and on one of my many sewing room purges, I recycled my printouts with the instructions.
