Sometimes I create a quilt without really thinking about the process. This one started with a sketch. I pieced it. Sewed it....and then found myself a little worried when it came to the quilting. It's a crib size quilt and I really wanted the effect of that big web, but worried about the unquilted spaces.
All came out fine. For the first time ever, I bought a premade binding but that came out fine too.
As soon as our grand guy opened it...he ran and put it on his bed....with his Spiderman pillow.
He has slept with it every night since!
He can even be caught wrapped up in it while watching TV.
Sorry about no Tuesday Archives this week. The kids have been moving into their new home and they've had no internet until tonight. YEAH!! Can you imagine, moving into a new house the same time you have a new baby! ARG!!! Speaking of new baby, he's our Thanksgiving blessing for sure.
He's a tiny guy and very precious. He NEVER cries. (Really!)

ReplyDeleteI'd say he is one pleased quilt recipient! The newest little guy looks so content. What fun! Our son and DIL and daughter and SIL both moved the week after having babies. It was crazy.
ReplyDeleteYour Spiderman quilt is to die for! Did you use a projector to blow the drawing up large enough for the quilt? Applique?
ReplyDeleteOh, how fun that he loved his Spiderman quilt! I had a Thanksgiving baby myself - spent time in the hospital while my whole family made Thanksgiving dinner in my kitchen, lol! They cleaned up well, I must say. Hope your celebration was fun.
