Here is my first large quilt project, finished earlier this year. |
I found this wonderful pattern in the January/February issue of Fons&Porter Quilting Magazine. http://www.fonsandporter.com/index.html the panel was designed by Michele Wojcinski for Avlyn Fabrics. |
Luke is as high as he can be displaying his finished quilt. I was slow getting started on this project. I searched everywhere for this dinosaur panel in the middle but I finally found it bugfabric.com. I wasn't able to find the coordinating Fossil prints so I went to a favorite local quilt shop, http://www.aheartlikeyours.com/ and fell in love with these batik prints. As I got started my simple lap sized quilt grew until it fit his double bed. I am linking up with Sew Many ways today for So Darn Crafty linky party...check out all the great ideas! |
Wow Mardell, you did a wonderful job! Thanks for sharing. I can tell Luke is very proud of his quilt. :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic! I love the dark colors. Great work coordinating the fabrics :)
ReplyDeleteDo you by any chance know what year Fons and Porter had this pattern? Was it January/February of 2010? I have the middle dinosaur panel to make a quilt for my son, and a pattern would make it so much easier! I'm a bit new to this quilting thing, so I take any help I can get. ;-). Any suggestions as to where I might find this pattern would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much! Feel free to e-mail me: bugheather(at)netzero(dot)net. Oh, and your quilt looks GREAT!
