These are quilts I made for my DGKs. One is on the theme of what SunBonnet Sue, and her brother, might do in our home area. The other is a story I wrote for my son when he was very small.

Thank you.
In the story, the boy goes out into the backyard and meets a unicorn. After a day of play with the unicorn and his best friend, the unicorn disappears into the rainbow. The story came about because my DS asked me to make him a cape with a black unicorn under a rainbow. Dyn is derived from a Welsh word for dark. My son is one of the characters in the story.

Thank you. Yes, I had to do some heavy editing to make the book fit on a quilt, but it was worth it!
Both of these quilts ended with Fair Theme blue ribbons, which I was very pleased with.
