These are applique Quilts I made for my grandsons in October. I drew out the patterns on freezer paper and transferred them to fabric, cut them out, and piece them back together like a jig saw puzzle then did a satin stitch around every raw edge.

Colin age 1 got the Dinosaur quilt
Drew and Dylan age 2 (Twins) got Caillou quilts
(their favorite cartoon character)

So colorful and original. They appear to be perfect for each of the boys, similar yet each one unique. Great job! And ... way to think "out of the box"
