    Default Quilt for DGS's 4th B-Day

    My grandson had a "tie-dye" birthday last year so I gave his mom some white FQs to tie-dye. She let the kids dye them so some of them got a little muddy and don't quite have the look of tie-dye (but that's OK). I then used the FQs, some white and a few solids to make this star and pinwheel quilt for him for this year's gift. I quilted the middle of it with glow-in-the-dark thread in a loop and star pattern.

    how clever you are! And I love the quilt--bet he will too, especially since he helped "make" it!
