Another quilt with Lori Holt blocks.

COUNTRY BOY is for my sister's grandson, Brooks.  

His older brother received one a few years ago .... so fair is fair!

Like his brother's quilt, it's backed with a cozy, repurposed flannel sheet.

Ivy, my helper for the day.  Ivy has her own quilt, kind of similar to this one.

Several Farm Girl books were used.  I love that you can mix and match the blocks to personalize.

Some closeups:

So many pieces to the scarecrow, I couldn't imagine doing the 6" version.

  Ivy has a 12" scarecrow in her quilt too, they are fun to make.

The snout and udder are pinker than they look here. 

 I thought about leaving a tassel on the tail... maybe on the next cute cow.

I did the hand quilting mostly with regular Guitermann hand quilting thread, but did use some perle cotton thread here and there.

I think there is a Fall / Pumpkin quilt in my future.... love the flat pumpkin!

 

Ok, I cheated on a few things as usual, this time on the horse blanket, going with a checked fabric instead of piecing tiny 1 inch squares.
