Quilt for Caelyn

My granddaughter loves bright colors, red in particular.  She is quite a good, little artist (9yo), and chose fabrics for a nap quilt herself.  She approved a simple design -
Not wanting the remnants, I pieced the back, and kind of like it.  But I'm yearning to work with repros again soon.  First I have to work on my daughter's modern quilt of aqua and grey.

    Good job. My oldest grandchild is 9. He really wants to quilt, but energy is low at my house. I am thinking of taking him to a quilting class and then..doing it myself. Diane

    I bet she loves the bright colors. I'm thinking the back might have taken longer to piece than the front. Great job!

    I love both sides, but the back really interests and delights me. What a wonderful gift.

    It's a fun bright quilt and will be all the more treasured since you let your granddaughter make choices and participate;).
