SPACE - THE NEW FRONTIER
Keepsake Quilting ™ – Outer Space Kit
24” x 44” Panel
Quilt Pattern - Popcorn
Made for Grandson #3
Grandson #3 loves Astronomy – so when I saw the panel in the Keepsake Quilting ™ catalog –
I knew I had to make it for him.
The panel had 15 terrific photos of various space related things –
including the Moon – Astronauts – the Space Shuttle – and Saturn.
I used EQ6 ® to plan the sashing strips that were needed to make the quilt a decent size.
When Grandson #3 saw the quilt on the design wall – his first words were –
“Where’s the other half of Saturn??”
Boys!! – Gotta luv ‘em!!
Kids say the darnest things. But it's because they see so much!!! They are more observant than adults give them credit for! Love that quilt and I have G-son that is into astronomy and anything science right now, too. he' probably say the same thing :-)
ReplyDeleteYou have done a wonderful job on the quilt. I had to laugh @ your grandson's comment....They are very literal when they are young, aren't they?
