Diary Quilt Tuesday #25


Isn't this a great block? My grandson, Griffin who is 7 made this for me for Mother's Day. It his is own original drawing that is transfered onto cotton fabric. I am so happy to have this in my Diary Quilt!


I love the detail, like the different colored finger nails! I have put a minimal amount of quiting in so it does not detract from his artwork. Kids have a great eye.I really like the painterly feeling of it!


This is one of my favorites. It is a clematis called Mrs___?__ I am not sure of the rest of the name. Does anyone else know? The color is pretty.


It gives you such a feeling of cool and clean. Maybe another block in the making?

  7. Griffin is quite a talent - I can't believe he's only 7! His block is such a treasure - I love that he did that beautiful border too! Love that Clematis too, it looks like little blue bells. I Googled it and can't begin to pronounce it but it's called Mrs. Cholmondeley - that's a mouthful!
