As planned, I got the dinosaur quilt completed on the weekend.
It always amazes me how “finished” a quilt looks once it’s quilted and bound. It’s not much different from the completed top – just some poof and squiggly lines, but it really brings it up a notch.
It finished out at about 63″ square – a lot bigger than the baby blanket I had originally planned. It would make a good lap quilt, or an extra layer for a twin bed. There are a lot of fun fabrics in the the dino “prints”, but I really love the flannel I found for the back.
Not only dinosaurs… but woolly mammoths and saber-tooth tigers too! (And such adorable tigers!)

What a beautiful finished project! Love your fabrics and the backing is just wonderful. In the photos, the quilt look more rectangular than square. Such a great gift for some special person.
