Done.

At the end of summer I started work on a new quilt for Iain. He chose the fabric, I chose the pattern. By the start of school I'd pretty much finished the top. Remember Iain posing with the top? Such a ham.

And now, the whole thing. Done, washed, placed on bed for youthful enjoyment. Iain's comment? "Old quilts are much softer." Yes, son.

I told him not to worry. By the time he's in third grade this quilt will be just fine. Until then, cowboy up.

Note that in these photos you can see the backing - elephants. Because: elephants.
