Three years ago I made a quilt almost identical to this one for my son. At the time I cut out this quilt with the high hope of completing it right after I finished Rhys’ quilt. Three long years later it has hit the light of day and is finished!
I ran out this morning during one of the dry periods this morning to take a few photos. I am still working a lot of little “side projects” and just started a major quilt project for Sloan’s bed. Thinks lots of pink and dolls.
This pattern is called “Lucky Lindy” and I got it from the Big Book Of Best Loved Quilt Patterns by Leisure Arts. It was a very easy quilt to make and perfect for a boy. I would like to think my nephew will treasure this quilt at many ages in his life. Well maybe not when he is a teenager. : ) Men’s fascination with aviation never ends, so hopefully it will be a presence in his life.
I am home today with a sick baby girl and hoping to sneak in some sewing time while she hangs out on the sofa. School holidays commence tomorrow so maybe some sneaky sewing between the myriad of activities Rhys has planned for me. Sigh.
