Monkey Around

I finished a commissioned quilt.  With no further ado I present my finished Peek-a-Boo Monkey Quilt. 

1
The kids are still taking 'Quilt Display' classes.  Not too bad for kids who are hardly 4 feet tall. 


I just did a basic spine with a leaf or feather bump along and out... I have no idea what this design could be called but it worked awesome. 




I'm working on some designs for a series of baby quilts.  I think I'm going to draw up some patterns in the next coming months.  Everyone likes cartoon baby quilts.  Linking up to The Needle and Thread Network where inspiration happens.

    Cute quilt, and great quilting. What most amazes me, though, is that you managed to get two kids on chairs, hidden from mom's eye, and nobody helped the other one "fall" off!?

      LOL! They were pretty good this time around, although I found one tied upside down dangling from the bunk bed the other day. Her foot was turning colour. They wouldn't tell me what happened, simply that some thing 'went wrong' during an experiment...

    Did I just read that you only started quilting in 2011? Your quilting is fabulous and the monkey quilt is adorable!
