A Finish at Last...

I finished Shaun's quilt today - yippee! It's called "ABC I love You"

I purchased a crib-sized kit and kept purchasing more and more fabric while I pondered on how to turn it into a twin-sized quilt...
First, I cut apart the panel and added sashing, then giant flying geese. I still had to add some plain blocks to the top and bottom to make it long enough. I used all of my extra fabric purchased on the back - quite a lot of pieces, plus I added a wide strip of Minkey to the top part, so that would be next to his sweet face at night. Since I pieced the back so much - it has a few tucks...

But - he loves it! And that is the most important part of all!
