these two quilts were made by my mum for my cousin's two children.
The last time I showed this monsters quilt it didn't have the borders.
These photos are much better and show the true colours in the quilt.
The photo doesn't quite show how lovely and bright those pinwheels are. They are just gorgeous. The original pattern was for a small wall hanging (design by Chitter Chatter design). Mum enlarged it to fit a single bed and added the extra floral border (taken from another quilt design) and added the circle of butterflies in the corners to finish it off. It's just beautiful.
The quilting just finishes it off perfectly.

Your mum is a STAR!! Now I know where you get your talent from. Her work is stunning... I love the monsters but my special favourite has to be Jack & Jill... those borders are fabulous. Two little people are very lucky indeed to be getting these quilts. I'm sure they'll be treasured by them till they are old and grey (the kids not the quilts)! Congrats mum!
You can't kidnap them if I get to them first :)
Both are soooo gorgeous and I can see where you get your talent from.
I would quilt nap these quilts too. They are gorgeous.
Yes, I would love to have both of those!
Congratulations to your mum. Such beautiful work.

Lucky children they must be so excited - if not you should definitely do some quiltnapping! Is a love of butterflies a family thing then??
