Thank you all so much! It was a fun little quilt to make. It's bigger than a crib quilt, but smaller than a twin...about the size of a toddler bed. There were a number of book-themed fabrics out there, but these particular ones are special to the recipients. It was important to have the Dahl books (Matilda and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) and the Little Prince. That's why we had to go overseas. It was also important to have the knights. Narnia was on the list, but there isn't any Narnia themed fabric and all of the lion prints just weren't suitable.

I chose the yellow because all of the blocks had just a little bit of it in the prints and the green was in quite a few of them too. Since everything was busy enough without the addition of anything else, I chose the blender fabrics instead of another print.

Thanks for looking!
