i threw this together using the blocks left over from The FWIP Named Ralph.
i used cotton fabric to back it so he qualifies as a Downy Quilt for Kids. |
Ralphie Jr. looks great!
|
Ralphie Jr is just to cute.
|
Patrice, I love the quilt, but the title is absolutely a hoot! ROFL!! Good job on both!
|
I love it! It just shouts YaaaaHooo!
Who ever receives will love it! |
Great job!
|
Great quilt-love the colors. I really like the scallopped (sp?) borders; are they hard to do? That's another thing on my list of things to try.
|
Love it!!!

i used a wavy ruler to make the borders. i didn't use binding. i cut two layers of each border and turned it right-sides out after sewing around the edges. on the back i just turned under the straight edges and basted them down. when i deco-stitched the top, it fastened the back of the border at the same time. |
Love it! The Downy project is such a good one-glad you chose that charity to give your quilt to, i know the kids will love it!!

I love your quilt, Patrice! And the name is still cracking me up!
|
Yes, quite a bit. Thanks for posting. That's an interesting technique!! Have you made a tute for it here on the board? I think a lot of people would find that incredibly useful!! So many people hate the binding part (not me, I love it, but I'm weird!!) and this seems like a great alternative.
|
I love it
|
Ralphie Jr is beautiful. I know that he will brighten the day for a lucky child. I am so proud of the members of this board and their loving, giving spirit.
|
Thanks, Patrice-that helps. I was afraid to try it with binding. This looks great, and now I'm anxious to try it on a baby quilt I'm doing.
Thanks!! |

I'll keep watch for Ralphi Jr's border tute, girlfriend! That's terrific! I'm hoping to work up another one this week. It's a wonderful charity, isn't it?
