Dr. Seuss for grandson
 
3 Attachment(s)
I originally had the Cat in the Hat fabric but found the panel for the Grinch while at a fabric store, so I had to make this quilt reversible. The pillowcase was an afterthought, using the Missouri Quilt pillowcase tutorial--the easiest part of the whole project! (the quilt is in the pillowcase) The quilting isn't too great, but I haven't figured out how to do more than straight lines on my sewing machine. (Grandson--in my avatar--loves the Seuss books he has.)

Adorable. All of it. My son is 15 and my daughter 19 but both had a complete set of Dr Seuss books but my son loved them most. I Have some fabric and will use it for grandchildren one day. I love what you have done.

Love what you've done. I, too read the Seuss books (many times) to my two children when they were little. Great series.

I love both sides of that marvelous quilt, and so will your grandson.

CUTE CUTE CUTE. I did a Cat In the Hat quilt this past summer. I never thought about doing a reversible one with the Grinch. I have the Grinch fabric sitting on my shelf.

I think that is the panel I just bought. You have given me some great ideas on how to use it. Thanks.

Great idea making your Dr.Seuss quilt reversible. My grandson has a Dr.Seuss themed room and he loves the colors and characters. You did good!

Thank you all! Yes, it was made with lots of love sewn in. GS is in California, so we don't get to see him often. Sending love long distance.
