Construction Quilt - Finished
Made this one for my nephew's birthday, using scrap fabric and some construction fabric I found on etsy. He's three, and I don't know if blankets are really his speed still, but he loves construction equipment, so hopefully he will 'dig' it a little bit.. eh, I might have to go find a truck or something to go with it.
I had been wanting to make a quilt for my nephew, Jackson, using the Michael Miller 'dig it' fabric for a while now, but I wasn't feeling particularly inspired with a design, so I just chose a design similar to one that I bought on etsy for Little Field Notes. I had to offset the letters of his name to get them all to fit the space I set aside for them. That wasn't part of the plan, but it fits in more ways than one.

That's a great quilt. He'll love that quilt for much longer than he'll care to admit what with all of that heavy equipment on it. Great job!
I think it looks great! My nephew will be 3 in June and I'm trying to come up with something personalized for him, but still child proof.
Beautiful! You inspire me...if only I could quilt. Lol!
