Here I am quilting again. This is the third one this year and I never quilt! I guess that's what happens when you become a grandmother. We're leaving early tomorrow for Jackson Hole so instead of packing I'm finishing up the quilt which will be a wall hanging in the boys room. I still need to do the binding and trim all the threads but I can do that when I get there. Overall I'm very pleased with it. If you look closely you can tell I'm not a polished quilter and little things are not quite right. I won't be entering it in any shows that's for sure. The close up shows the stippling that I did all over. That sure uses a lot of thread.
The animals are cut from a fabric panel showing the illustrations from "Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See?". Owen, at 2 years old, has this book memorized. I think he will enjoy seeing the familiar animals.

I smiled when I red your post. My son is only 11 years old, but I can imagine that I will have fun sewing for my grand children... if my son has any... still many years ahead of course. In my eyes, this is a great quilt. Have fun with your family. It is so precious.
He will love it! I love it, anyway.
He will love his quilt. Isn't being a grandmother the very best?
Awwww. So cute!
