wolf quilt for Grandson
 
7 Attachment(s)
Hi Everyone. If you recall..last month I posted a quilt made for one twin Grandson. Got it from Missouri Star Quilt video. It was called 'Illusion'. I finished this 'top' only for the other guy. He is 19 ...and has always had a love of wolves. When little, he had light switch covers, curtains, border panels, sheets, pillows..all wolves. He has outgrown the bed in that room now...lol...so he sleeps in the well finished basement with the fireplace. I found all of this fabric at a yard sale in 2014. Finally found a use for it. [ATTACH=CONFIG]536605[/ATTACH]with pillow squares[ATTACH=CONFIG]536606[/ATTACH]four of them. I asked him what his favorite color was and without hesitation he blurted out "lime green" (I can't believe he is related to me. ) I asked you guys last month to help me figure out how many strips I could get from a 36" x 18" piece. And you guys came through. So here is the rest. [ATTACH=CONFIG]536607[/ATTACH] I hope it shows up on this screen but then I took beads and accentuated some blades of grass. and their eyes. [ATTACH=CONFIG]536608[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]536609[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]536610[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]536611[/ATTACH] I hope you all enjoy. I really hope he, being 19 now,(nearly 20) doesn't chew the beads off! lol I can't wait to see his reaction!

He will be thrilled.

I'm sure he will love it. Thinking at being almost 20 you should feel safe knowing he won't chew on the beads, lol :)

What a work of art. I used to be a bead artisan and I still love beads, but to put them on a quilt, is amazing.

Yeah...my thoughts exactly!!! Couldn't believe I actually had some. And then later ran across the lime green camo. What a great kid, He isn't aware of this, yet. I can't wait to see his reaction. Lime green and all.
