Colin's Quilt - Done!

Another finish!

   Almost a year ago, my youngest asked for a new quilt for his bed.  His only direction was that he wanted it to be blue (to match his walls) and green (his favorite color). After showing him a few patterns, he picked the pinwheel.  Together we dug through my stash and pulled some fabrics to start with, and then we headed to the LQS where I let him pick out a few more.
 I finished the top pretty quickly, but since this was for my baby it had to be hand quilted.  So....it took a while.  Other projects got in the way.  Christmas gifts got in the way.  But now it is done.  Hand quilted, bond and on his bed!
 Aren't these fabrics so cute?  He loves Converse sneakers - wears them everyday - so of course that had to be added.
He picked a blue batik for the back.  Darker than I usually pick for a backing, but boy does the stitching show up.

Thanks for stopping by!
