So my latest finished project is Joseph's blanket. It is made up of 8 inch squares. 15 squares high and 10 squares across. It is pretty huge and heavy. Maybe that is why we still haven't gotten a full picture of it. LOL The fabrics are mostly made up of cut up pairs of jeans and averages two pockets a row. He loves the idea of having pockets to put things in. LOL Other fabrics include:flaming motorcycles, cowboys, SpongeBob, sports, Scooby Do, and blue with stars. The back is simply a solid red blanket which makes the quilt even more heavy. Each corner where the fabrics meet I put in a random button and then their are several appliqué that I put on randomly too such as a silver anchor, an American flag, and a gold star. Also, red, blue, and silver stars are set randomly as well. The whole thing was really exciting to make. I was challenged by the "boy" theme and I am so happy with the result. Love you all!!!

Wow, Wendy, I am impressed that you're finding time to embroider and quilt! How about a close-up of the hand embroidered squares? I am very curious to see the details! BTW, Joseph has sure grown! Have a great day....
