    This is a charity quilt being donated to a children's hospital. It was a quilt challenge for my guild which is having a retreat in October. It won't win any prizes or ribbons, but that is not my intent. I just wanted to participate and give it to someone who will hold on to it and love it. I will think of him fondly when I look at a photo of it.
    It is my first FMQ. It is not the greatest quilt ever made but I really enjoyed working on it. It was my design for a young boy. I hope he enjoys having it as much as I enjoyed making it.
    Now if I can get it to post!

    Oh - by the way - I call it "Inspector Clousseau"

    That is so neat. I've never seen anything like it. You win a prize in my book, both for the unique quilt (with great quilting) and for the good deed.
