ds#1 started this quilt roughly 18months ago. he cut out he penguins and appliquéd them himself. sewed it together(and discovered the joys of setting triangles lol!)
but than he stopped, he wanted the quilt big enough for his bed(it made a wall hanging) that is when my mom stepped in. she had bits and pieces of penguin fabric that she had collected and had enough using them to make the quilt big enough for A. the look on his face Christmas morning was the best
What a special gift! It turned out so nicely.
