A little while ago I was asking on this board about quilt sizes for young children. Thanks to you all, I'm now ready to begin a twin-size quilt for my 4yo nephew!! I'm so excited.

Here's a first impression of what I'm doing...

Thank you, glad you like it! :D I'll definitely post updates when they happen.

Sewsan, there's no hand piecing involved, there will be triangles in between the hexagons so I can strip piece. I'll post pictures once I get to that stage...

The animal prints are mostly from one source, favoritefabrics.com. Not the cheapest, but nice fabrics. I didn't have years for collecting fabrics, lol! Only started a few months ago. :-)
