A Dino Quilt for Damien


I finished this quilt over a year ago; it was a baby quilt for a family friend. She wanted dinosaurs for her infant son and so I found a dino pattern and here it is. The pattern is by Made by Marney, here on Etsy.

It is foundation paper-pieced. Fabrics were mostly drawn from my Victoria Findlay Wolfe collection as well as some other things from my stash but Victoria's blues and especially the black and white stripe I used for the teeth seemed really fitting. I did not do the embroidery seen in the original pattern. The border fabric is an Eric Carle print that drew together the palette used for the dinos.

It was pretty fun to do though it did take a while. I quilted it with either Aurifil white or invisible/monofilament thread (I can't remember which), by machine. I used Quilters Dream wool batting for the little one to enjoy. Of course Eugenie had to photobomb. She's such a drama queen.
