I’ve been working on this project since about May. It is the first quilt I have ever attempted. I decided that Travis (2 years old) needed a quilt for his bedroom from his mommy. He has a queen-size bed. I wanted it reversible for different decor options as he
grows older. I made the design up myself and I’m pretty pleased with the results. Here … let me show you …

| This is the back of the quilt. The design doesn’t go with this particular decor but it’s an option for the future. |

| And here is the top view. Don’t you love how the border matches the curtains? I found it while on vacation and only went by memory as to the colour of the crutains. I think I did a pretty fine job with the match, if I do say so myself! Now I need to add a more masculine bed skirt (is that an oxymoron?) and get him some darker stained furniture that will match the headboard. Baby steps. First I have another quilt to finish and it has a November deadline!

Nicely done! You're a braver woman than I. I have tackled a multitude of crafts, but I've always turned left at the doorway that would lead to quilting. I do admire your design work. Thank you for sharing your charming project. Cherry Kay
