Disclaimer: I am not a quilter. I know how to sew and can do basic stuff but design and layout are not a strong talent with me.
I'm trying to get a baby quilt put together for my new nephew. I've embroidered five 9" squares and might be able to get a sixth and seventh one done (basically I have until next Thursday) but I'm having a hard time figuring out a cute layout.
Here's a couple that I like ok:
B=Border (will be half the width of the squares; the quilt will be 4 squares high and 3 across)
E=Embroidered
P=Print or pieced
bbb
EPE

bbb (this one depends on my getting seven squares which is doubtful.)
I have no ideas on how to do one with six squares. I'm willing to piece some squares if need be because that would be faster than embroidering (I've done a little so I'm not looking for quilt-block ideas, just layout).
