ONCE UPON A TIME
Hudson: Year #1


A  t-shirt/onesie quilt  to commemorate my great grandson's first year.
They are a 2 hour drive from us, in Toronto....but are moving at least 30 minutes closer and we are so excited because that will mean I can hop in the car and visit way more often without the stress of Toronto traffic....Yaaaay!!

I used 5 and 10 inch blocks.






I ran out of the yellow for the inner border so improvised with some white mixed in on either side.


The backing and binding are from an Ikea duvet cover.  I love using duvet covers for backings..so you'll see the other side of the duvet cover on one of my next quilts soon :)




Gifted !!  I love it when you can tell they love the quilt ...success :))


The birthday boy .... "why does Beppe have a silly fox face on her head?"


One of my favourite garden shots captured among the quilt photos.
