    Monster Quilt

    Well - this proved to be a bit of a challenge! I started out with the 'Monster Patch' pattern which I then lost! (Think I recycled it in error, lol). The monsters on the top left, middle right and bottom middle are from the pattern.

    I didn't want to spend money on another pattern and could probably have worked the missing ones out, but decided to have a go at creating my own monsters.

    I'm quite pleased with the result, although I wish I had paid more attention to the width of the sashing to make it fit better!

    You can probably tell the one on the bottom right is the mummy monster as she has two pairs of hands, three ears and feet on wheels................

    Oh, I love the one-eyed snaggle-toothed monster and the winged monster you created! And the mommy-monster is just too clever! In fact, I think I like your monsters even better than the original pattern monsters and they all go well together; very nice job!

    I think you did a great job on your monster quilt! If you didn't point out that only some of them were from a pattern, I'd never even know! My favorite monsters are the blue bat-like monster and the yellow sun one! Nice job! Whoever receives this quilt will be a lucky person/child!
    Go forth and sew!

    Mummy monster...love that! Also, the sunglasses monster! You are every bit as good (or better) a designer as the original!
