This daughter was a long time Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak fan ( which you can purchase here if you like).. and I saw this fabric at JoAnn Fabrics. I do love getting books for little ones! Combining a gifted quilt with a book is a particularly fun thing to do!
At any rate.... this quilt is done in a quilt as you go method like Orlando's Monster University quilt..... and I added burp cloths and a crib sheet to match.
Burp cloths courtesy of Amy Smart's tutorial at www.diaryofaquilter.com at this link - Burp Cloth Tutorial. Amy is one of the first internet teachers I had - she has an astounding number of great tutorials on her site!.
And crib sheets from www.danamadeit.com at this link - Crib and Toddler Bed Sheets. This is another easy-peasy thing to make (and people think you are totally talented!) I need to wander through her site a little more one of these days.
And then a rag quilt - because it was Chase's turn....
with dinosaur fabric and reds and blues...
but I made it so quickly and gave it away so fast that I forgot to get a photo :-(
