Monster Quilt

When each grandchild is born my mom gives them a "bragger" and a "dragger" quilt. Last night as my mom was laying out Jackson's "bragger" quilt (to attach the binding) he crawled right over and sat on it. Then he began to explore it...touching the monsters eye's and teeth. We thought he would lose interest, but he didn't! He would crawl near the edge and then turn back around to stay on it. It was funny to watch him. Here is a cute video of him exploring the quilt.

PS...My mom has spent SO many hours on this quilt...appliquéing each monster and then hand quilting the whole thing. It looks so good!

That is the cutest quilt! That's gotta make your mom so happy to see that he's loving it! (What a good crawler by the way!)

Your quilt is awesome Janae! I am one who really knows how long you have been working on it. While watching Jackson crawl around I remembered you asking me last year if I would want one for Tyler's bed (a twin size). Can you imagine if you had actually started that project??

Janae,
As usual, I'm really impressed with your quilts, they are always beautiful, even the draggers.
