This is for my son's second birthday. It's become a tradition that my kids get bedding with a quilt for their 'big kid' beds on their 2nd birthday.

I started quilting this yesterday, though the top has been done for months.

The kit didn't have enough material to make the size I wanted, so I added in the framed appliques of hammers and saws.
:thumbup: great idea! Where did you find the great fabric and do you mind if we copy your quilt for our little ones?
The fabric was at my LQS. I thought the line was called "Mr. Fix It," but I just googled it, and the fabric isn't the same. I'll double check with the LQS. I think she has one kit left, but all of the board fabric is the light color, not the dark. I didn't follow the directions in the kit she had, but I used all the fabric!
I don't mind if you copy it.
