A Quilt For My Grandson

I started this way back when I found out he was to be. Thank goodness I finished before he grew up.

 It's my version of an eye spy quilt. Hand quilted with size 5 pearl cotton.

 Simple quilting.

 Jess told me not to get all uptight about the quilting. It's wonkier in some places than in others. I tried. 

  There are fabrics in here from several lines, some of which were donated by Jennifer and Katelyn. Thanks you two. 

I was having so much fun making the blocks that I ended up with enough for a twin size quilt. Pay attention much? Do math much? Jess asked me to make it with blocks on the front and back. Double the fun..... 

The individual blue blocks on either side were a happy mistake.

                          

I've said it before, I'll say it a million times. I love this boy!

The Start of Something

I've started an I Spy quilt for baby M. Thanks Katelyn for some very cool small peices. I have a few more to add and then I get to decide where I am going with it. I think I need a better design wall than the grass in front of my apartment.

Sunday night You Know Who and I finally left the house after home work and the world cup game were over. We walked down into Boeblingen and had dinner. This was our backdrop for the evening.

I do love it here when summer finally arrives.
