My First Quilt........DONE!

I am FINALLY done with my first quilt. I made this especially for Preston as a coming home with baby gift in his favorite theme: Thomas The Train. I thought it would be nice to give him something special for being the big helpful brother that he is. It's a queen size quilt which will fit perfectly on his bed in the winter months. It's very heavy and very, very warm. I did not realize how time consuming or the amount of work this involved, but I'm sure glad I didn't know otherwise I probably wouldn't have started it :) I was so proud of myself for completing a task like this because I sometimes start things, but never finish them. I think this turned out soooo cute!

Preston was absolutely thrilled when he saw this quilt for the first time. He had such a huge smile from ear to ear asking if this was his. He can't wait to put it on his bed, but the unfortunate part is, the weather is warming up so he just might have to wait awhile before he can use it.

The back of the quilt.




I used a pattern Thomas The Train red material on the back to give it a little extra look instead of it being all red.
