Kyler's Quilt

I made a baby quilt for my first grandson to be. The shower is next weekend and am very excited. I found this monkey fabric at JoAnn's . It is absolutely perfect as Keith and Felicia are doing a Monkey / Jungle theme baby room. Primarily in light green. I couldn't have designed fabric any better for the occasion!!! I used a pattern out of the Fat Quarter Quilt book by M'liss Rae Hawley. The pattern is called Roman Stripes, I have used this pattern before and just love it. It is a quick and easy pattern and if you are doing a baby size quilt you will have enough for 2 quilts. One for the baby and one for Grandma's house. LOL

I wrote this dedication using Word on my computer and then printed it onto T-Shirt transfer. After ironing it onto white quilt fabric I stitched it on the back of the quilt. Then finished the quilt by binding it with the soft flannel fabric.
Here is the dedication that I used:

This quilt is made of cloth and thread
To place upon your little bed.
It's not an heirloom just to keep,
But to lie upon as you count sheep.
Or perhaps the floor's the perfect place
For a you and your teddy bears picnic space.
This quilt can be anything you can dream
From Superman's cape to the robe of a king.
Pretend it's a raft adrift at sea,
Or just cuddle up when you watch TV
So use it up and wear it out.
I promise I won't yell or pout.
Just tell me when its days are through,
And I'll make another one just for you.
Made With Love By Grandma Christie
Especially for Kyler Timothy Hund
