Hudson's Lap Quilt...


I have a couple of five year old grandsons that love dinos. Hudson in particular has been able to name and category dinosaurs of every type for years, and, as I said, he's only five. That's why I made this crazy dino quilt just for him...


I bought this cute dino fabric at our local quilt store, and I already had (as you can see) about a million complimentary fabrics already on hand, so I used them all. It makes for a wild and crazy quilt, which is totally appropriate for our wild and crazy Hudson.


I used a half triangle pattern for this quilt (as I do for almost all the quilts I'm making for Christmas for our family members), but I made it into a chevron pattern this time...


For the back I used some striped fabric with bits and pieces of the complimentary fabric I used on the front of the quilt...


A swirly quilting pattern was chosen for the quilting...


I think our little dinosaur expert will love this quilt!
