Laughing Monkey :)

I like to make quilts for Quilts for Kids... when I can. A girl at work bought some fabric at Joann's and asked me to make a quilt for Quilts for Kids with it to donate for her. The fabric was so cute I just love how it turned out and wanted to show it to someone :)

Oh boy! THAT is cute! I think I have problems getting those seams to match correctly when joining those blocks. You did GREAT....what's your secret? Do you have a special ruler or do you mark 1/4"? That is one fun quilt!

LOL how appropriate that you used Tumblers for this fabric. The monkey has obviously been drinking banana daiquiris. Some little boy or girl will be delighted with this quilt and we can say he is laughing because the tumblers are full of chocolate banana milkshakes.

That's just too cute!

I'm going to tell Sewellie here on QB to be sure and see it, as she has a lil one in her life who loves monkeys.

NoraB - I DID have trouble with the tumbler blocks lining up, I thought it was just me!! My seam ripper was used a lot...I don't know if there is a secret but I don't know one

Very cute quilt! I, also, made one and had a little trouble with them, maybe one of the pros will chime in on the trick to them!

Such a darling quilt. That certainly will make some child very happy.

Grandma Bonnie 05-31-2015 07:10 PM

Such a cute quilt and you and your friend will make some child very happy with this joint venture! You did a great job and I love the fabrics she chose!

FabStripper 05-31-2015 07:37 PM

That looks like one happy silly monkey. This is a perfect quilt for this fabric. I have lots of that fabric and waited for just the right pattern. I really like the tumbler and how that silly monkey is all different directions. Those are potent bananas for sure.

Bluebonnets 05-31-2015 09:07 PM

So very cute and happy! Just had to smile looking at the monkeys.

earthwalker 05-31-2015 09:11 PM

What fun fabric.....and you did a great job with bringing out it's best. Some small person is going to go bananas over this (sorry....tragic humour:)).

Thank you, Kif. Yes, the little one likes monkeys. She takes the monkey toy in an old plastic bag to the PO when we talk down there. I'm sure it will go with her to the funeral of her daddy on the 8th of this month. I need to get busy and make her a monkey bag. Don't know if I can get it done that fast, it's been a very hard 3 weeks.
Thank you for showing it to me. Being so young she doesn't understand, but monkeys make sure everything is okay. (Now for me to understand that. )
