I finished My Little Monkey this afternoon, and delivered it to my granddaughter Reghan at our Mother's Day gathering. Her mom and I agree that this is a quilt that Reghan can drag around the house and get dirty. (The poodle quilt I made last Christmas is more of a keepsake, and my granddaughter isn't allowed to use it much.)
The quilt is based on Hoffman's Patchwork Jungle quilt pattern, but uses no Hoffman fabric. I inserted Monkey Wrench blocks in several of what would be plain fabric areas.
I get to cross another project from my WIPS and WHIMMS list. Yippee!

Enjoy your quilt, My Little Monkey.
That quilt is TOO CUTE! I have never liked the monkey wrench block until now, and I really love the layout you used to frame the blocks and "scatter" them around.
ReplyDeleteYou sound like my kind of traveler too! I love going to new cities and using their public transportation! I love road trips and AmTrack too :)
Keep me in mind if you decide to get into designing - I've helped a few get started . Best wishes & happy quilting, Marguerita
