Jungle Mania - For Koben

Quilt for Grandson. Sorta Kinda matches his brother's.
Jungle fun! 72 X 72 - good for bunks & camping. Its brighter than this in person and the back is scorching hot yellow flannel!




















Here's big bro with his quilt. They share a room so maybe it will be fun. The back of this is crosscut black corduroy. I got it dirt cheap a few years back in Canada, like $3 a meter and it is 60" wide. Too bad I didn't have an extra suitcase to buy the whole bolt!

HFD T-Shirt Quilt

I just finished this T-Shirt quilt for Marc my sorta son in law who is a firefighter paramedic search & rescue etc guy in Hawaii. He's donating it to the Sayer Foundation - they have a fund-raiser every year to purchase rescue equipment for the HFD. His HFD t-shirts are sashed with a batik denim (who ever heard of such a thing?)


















Here's the helicopter. The blades are stitched in and don't show up as well as I would like.
