    I had a lot of fun making this quilt for our bed. Will probably repeat some of the blocks later for the great grandkids. I especially enjoyed making the scrappy turtles with the hats. Think that will be a good one for our great grandson's first big boy quilt when he graduates to a youth bed.

    This is queen size. I hand quilted it.

    The frogs at the bottom are paper pieced as are the turtles and dragon flies on the side borders and top

    The center is a blown up picture of a frog and dragon fly that I googled and the cross stitch blocks was what really started the idea of making a frog quilt.
