Duck Quilt

This is the actual first quilt I made before I bothered reading about how to actually make one. I cross stitched all the animals from DUCK..........the character from Little Fat Books for pre-beginner readers (baby board books). After I stitched all the little animals, not knowing I should have had a standard square size I cut brick size squares out of flannel fabric and started sewing.

This is when tragedy struck! Nothing fit right and I had to cut things to fit. Finally ended up with what you see. The original binding wasn't pretty and had to be redone once I learned how to do binding..........I would never submit a picture of the original finished peice even if I DID have a picture of it hahahahahaha.........it truly was hideous. The original picture was taken with a throwaway camera which is why it is so blurry.

Now it's too cute and put away in the closet for grandchildren if I ever have any
