My first custom quilt. Made for a friend of mine who is expecting a little boy any day now. She requested and approved these colors and then picked a quilt style that she liked and I started designing.
I ended up with 3 or 4 different blocks to give the quilt some variety with the squares.
I used some of the left over scraps to spell out his name on the back. I used the prints for his name then used the solids for the backing itself to showcase both the quilting and allowing his name to stick out.
I really do love how his name turned out and plan to use this on my future quilts.
I also added one of my new labels to the back.
I made it big enough that the little guy can use it for several years. Really love how this turned out.

I love it too! Such great colours for a boy and his name on the back is a very sweet touch.
I really am copying this... I love it so much. :) It's really a beautiful blend of fabrics and the design is so great... ♥
I love it babe! Did you make up the pattern?
I love the fabric choices, the name on the back, the whole thing! It looks fabulous. :)
That quilt turned out very cool! Wonderful colors. And I love the fact that you put his name on the back too.
