Roaringly Green
Hi There,
Did I ever mention, that I like to challenge myself? Well, with this quilt, I definitely did.
This was the first time I drafted a full-quilt-size FPP pattern (48 print pages). And no, I did not come up with the idea of making a dinosaur quilt myself.
This quilt was a commission from a friend of mine, who wanted a dinosaur quilt for her adult son. No joke, this young man is still completely serious about his interest in everything dinosaur. He’s especially fond of the Spinosaurus. So that’s what my brief was, together with the colour theme blue/green.
The longest time, (well, after researching how a Spinosaurus was supposed to look like) it took me to draft the pattern, after that, I just dove in and got it finished as quickly as I could.
‘Spinosaurus’ was finished well before the deadline, so I took it on an outing for a special photo-shoot to a dinosaur theme park.
Asking complete strangers to please hold up a quilt for you to photograph gives you the nicest conversations!
Take care,
Rita
