A smaller version of Thunderbirds  for a baby boy due in August -- finishing just in time and will be on the way to Michigan Monday.

Thunderbirds, Finished 60'x60"

Linking up with Sarah at Confessions of a Fabric Addict....Whoop Whoop!

Baby Thunderbirds in Progress

A smaller version of  my "Thunderbirds" Quilt (Black Cat Creations Pattern) commissioned by a newborn's Great Aunt Ginny from Michigan.  Special thanks to Cheryl at The Quilters Garden in Fenton, Michigan who assisted Ginny with the fabric choices.  The top will finish at 60 X 60" and will be large enough for the baby boy to use for many years to come -- especially since high quality batiks are being used.

Just need to sew the blocks together and load it on the long-arm!  Almost done.

Thunderbirds Show and Tell

As I begin the wings for a light-medium blue Thunderbirds Quilt -- baby size -- I looked back at my earlier versions.  The Red/White colorway was to be mine, although my husband has taken possession (the guy who loves everything blue).

The blue/white below was gifted to a retiring friend.

This cute pink/white with accents of green was donated to a fund raiser for Breast Cancer Awareness (Loved this one).

The scrappy multi color version headed to Texas to raise funds for my nephews baseball team -- also made a multi-color batik version for the Cover Shot of the pattern, now traveling with Black Cat Creations.

And....if you don't like using scrappy "strings" for the wings, use a stripe fabric.
