Animals on the Savannah

It was a delightful day

when I could finally

introduce my 5 month old grandson,

Weston,

to his quilt.

You can see he's thrilled.

Well, as much as a 5 month old can be.

It was a kit that I had bought

from Fat Quarter Shop.

After some initial issues, 

it went together quickly.

 Check here for the back story if you'd like.

Then it was off to my quilter,

Debi, who did some marvelous custom quilting.

The background around each of the animals is 

a solid.  Look at the quilting she did.

It makes each of the figures pop.

I'm usually not into heavy machine quilting,

but for some reason this just seemed to fit.

I love the pattern variations down the center.

It adds lots of texture to compliment the prints

and the animals.

 Debi did a wonderful job.

The backing was made up 

of all the leftover pieces

 and will be as much fun to look at 

as the front.

I'm thinking this quilt will stay

at Nana's house for awhile.

 It will be a fun place to play

especially with Running Man.

Until Next Time-
