Quilt for Jr

I have been doing impovement porjects to the furniture and home, Brian and I made an upholsterd head board, then I sewed matching pillows, back in March (maybe I will still blog it) I painted our dresser and nightstand black with gold drawers.
Just yeaterday I painted Susans todler bed, that was not a big a deal the bed was white, I just cleaned the bed and repainted white, now it looks new not like 3 todlers have been loving it for
6 years.
One project that was a big deal was that I sewed my first full size quilt!
I made it for Jr. I used mostly fabrics that I already had.
I always like that part best! It was my first full size quilt and I machine quilted it so there are a lot of puckers, especially on the back, but the qulit is for a young boy so I think it adds to the charm. Also the lines are not straight, some on puropse to add to the charm. In the end I love the way it turned out. Especially the flame blocks and the red blocks!

I hope it loves it for years, now we just need a bed (he is in a bunk bed with his sister) and his own bed room for him!
