Oksewglad.....such a precious quilt for your nephew. Sure to be treasured for a lifetime. I love stuff like this. Well done..
Project #10 - Fat Quarter Bundle Challenge.... One more pillow to make and, hopefully, I'll squeeze a table runner out of the scraps too. This pillow is the perfect pillow to pull out some 1 1/2" strips stashed away. I didn't have a pattern but, if interested, strips should be cut 1 1/2" X 3 1/2"....6 across/6 down = 18" finished. Easy peezy.. I think pillows makes great gifts. I've made many for gifts....but this one I'm keeping.. Lol

Thanks all; I washed the quilt before taking the pic so it is all nice and clean for the little one. Now to send it over East.
Ten projects Teen! Fantastic and the last as good as the first!
