This is a quilt for one of David and Chelsea’s expected twin sons. The boys, or “my butters” as Quinn calls them, are due between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Once again I used the “Jumping Jacks” crib quilt pattern from Quilts from Sweet Jane by Sue Pfau. I used this pattern previously for “The Zoo” quilt in August and “Hold Tight” quilt in March of this year and the “Socky” quilt in May 2014.
The charm packs for this quilt are called “Rhythm and Harmony” and have a music theme. Both Chelsea and David are music teachers. The back is a tan and brown circle print from a MSQC sale.
