Quilting

I don't yet know what to name my newest quilt. It was designed for a little boy I have never met but I work with his grandfather and know John Michael will be an interesting and intelligent child.

This is the third quilt I have created this summer and fall. I sew them completely by hand and find the work enjoyable and relaxing. It's inspirational to go into a fabric shop and grab colors and fabrics that can become a piece of art.

This is also the first quilt in which I used templates to quilt the block. Each solid has a different design and then I just criss-crossed the nine patch squares.
