The start of Charlie's Ball Quilt


I've put off starting Charlie's quilt long enough. Jenn says he's ready for a "big boy" bed...no more crib. So that means he needs this NOW. It's not a huge quilt, just large enough for a toddler bed but really cute so she can bribe him to leave the crib...lol.

I've been matching up shirtings (my all time favorite fabrics, you know), with ball pieces I recieved through Instagram. I requested ball fabrics during the #getyourquiltywishesgranted
I recieved so many wonderful balls. 

When Charlie was over, he grabbed the blocks and crushed them to his chest. He wanted them then and there, as is. I told him they ARE his but he has to wait until I sew them all together...then it'll be ready to take home. 


As he was looking at my fabrics, he picked a few more pieces to put in the quilt. I'm going to add them in...maybe on the back?...still thinking about that.

And this denim look fabric will be the sashing. Got to get to work!
