The Snake Boy Quilt

 Way long ago, when my boy was only four years old, I made him this little quilt. He picked out all the fabrics himself, and he totally loved it! Then when he was about 7 he lost it. I was sad, he was sad, we were all sad! He begged and begged me for a new one, this time bigger and better. I kept putting it off for other projects. Even after I ordered the fabric I was really slow to get started on it.

Finally on Sunday night it was done. Little Mr. M is now 9. So it didn't take so long;) He didn't pick out the fabrics this time, but he thoroughly approved them all. It is all about him. His favorite colour is orange, he loves snakes, and is always dressed in camouflage.

 Most of the fabrics are from the 'Backyard Baby' collection by Michael Miller. I found them online at Fabric.com. I threw in the camo and found some fun grey chevron fabric for the backing and Ta! Da!

 I love the snakes and other creatures in jars, and the little ants crawling around.

Here is my happy boy ready to head to bed with his new quilt. I'm really hoping this one doesn't get lost!
