This is the first quilt made after my father's death May 4, 2017. It was made for the 3-year old grandson of one of my father's caregivers. The caregiver was Brenda and her grandson is Xavier. Needless to say, Xavier is into dinosaurs! This quilt was made from fabrics specially purchased from fabric.com. The fabrics were selected to use the pattern from the Koala Party quilt that I made earlier this year. This quilt turned out bright and cute.
