I really didn't want to cut into it! (btw...figured out the woodgrain print is from Aviary 2! just look at the selvage doofus! (that's what I said to me when I realized it!)) anywho...
as my nephew is the oldest of 3...and the older brother of 2 sisters...I wanted to make him something "different" from the quilts I'm working on for his sisters...but I didn't want to be "girly", and I wanted something to go with stuff he already has...my sis told me his bedding is blue...hence the use of different blues...actually I don't think I would have cared what color it was once I picked up these fabrics! anyways...need to get back on track here...so I started (after staring at the fabric for a few mins) cutting five inch squares:
and eventually ended up with the proper number (this one is 100% a repeat of this quilt...just different fabrics) and included some fussy cutting of the frog...I mean Prince Charming...which I've never really done...and very proud to say came out just perfect! I got to laying it all out (sorry no pics of this part)...and then just started piecing:
I'm in LOVE with this quilt...and ONLY because it is going to one of my FAVORITE people...will I part with it! Back to piecing...I'm officially T-8 days to get this one and my nieces quilts finished so I can get them on their way to their new home! ACCKKKKK! (I love a deadline...heehee!)
