Evan's quilt top. . .


This was suppose to be a 90x100" quilt and I made all the blocks for it. After thinking about things, I've scaled it back to a 60x80" quilt. What 3 year-old needs a king-size quilt?!? I'll use the rest of the blocks on the back and make 2 more to fill it in. It will basically look like it has two fronts.

Now to assemble the back.

Later Taters,
Jen
P.S. I used Alexander Henry fabrics for this one, and naturally, I can't remember the names of them. It's an African theme to go with the two hunting trips my husband has taken there. I'm sure they're the last two. :)

Oh, thank you Robin. It was actually super easy. THe worst part was cutting the 360 squares and rectangles and slicing the outside of my pinky with the rotary cutter. I actually was able to fit in putting all the blocks together in 2 days. The finished blocks are 15.5x20.5", so they're ptetty big. It's an easy one if you want to do one. It just looks tricky. Those are my favorite kind. :)

Again thank you,
Jenny

I'm hoping to give one a try myself. Now all I need is a really easy pattern! :)
