It's SUPER simple and very reasonable to make. The pattern uses 5" precuts (one pack or two), a little extra yardage if using one precut pack, some batting and backing. The sample is made using a Moda charm pack, "Sunkissed". Hearts to Holly has the charm packs and this pretty backing. They also carry the batting, which I tried for the first time. It's a very soft and fluffy, poly. It'll hold up well for lots of washing and feels SOOOO good! The sample will be hangin in the quilt shop if anyone is out that way and wants to feel it. There's no quilting or binding for this quilt, just turn and tack. It could be tied (like we did in the old days) but I found tacking quick and easy. You can get the pattern at Hearts to Holly or email me at northerndeb@ymail.com. 
Wouldn't this be a cute quilt for a new puppy or kitten? I think I might just have to make one in a doggie print.... ohhhh... and FLANNEL?! Nice :)
Just a note: The rocker in the photo? It's a child's rocker... was my mom's when she was young. It's been up in the barn for a while and I decided it needed to be in my daughters old room now that there's extra space. Someday, I'll have some grandchildren that will use it .... I HOPE!

May this pattern be the first of many in a long line of successful patterns. WTG, Design Diva Deb!! Cute quilt. Sew quick. A chance to win a free pattern and FQ? I'm right there following you, girl ... ;)Pat
That certainly is a good beginner pattern and so quick to put together.
Congrads on your pattern.
I admire anyone who can make a pattern. I can never follow my own when I write out the directions.
Is that you sitting so pretty on the rock?
I have followed you for a long time. My sewing is so back burner with this job I have, but I enjoy seeing what you are up to. Maybe some new cloth would knock me into gear.
So great to see more beginner patterns on the market again!!!
