Mixing up my dinosaurs

While Dave was busy banging in fence boards, I was busy making my own kind of fence….

A baby rail fence quilt!

Rail fence is a super easy block to make, and I’m amazed I haven’t done one sooner. It’s even easier when you have a Jelly Roll. And I did! A Jelly Roll called “Eat Your Veggies”**. And it’s chock full of fun dinosaur prints.

I’ve got a couple yards of coordinating fabric for the back and some of the fun orange dino foot print for the binding.

It all adds up to a super sweet, quick quilting project. I’m headed to Mom’s for the weekend, so you may even see this one done by next week.

** I got this Jelly Roll because of a mix up. On one of my MSQ buying sprees, I’d bought a charm pack with dinosaurs, and tucked it away. Later, when getting backing fabric for my Round Robin quilt, I saw the Eat Your Veggies yardage on sale. So I bought some, thinking it went with the charm pack I had.

It was only when it arrived, and I pulled out that I realized my mistake. And how I mixed them up I have no idea, because dear readers, that other collection (Called “Roar”) looks like this…

Not even remotely alike!!!

Happily, a short while later, I was doing and other Connect Threads order and was able to get the Eat Your Veggies Jelly Roll and some yardarge to go with Roar.

So long story short… I’m going to be making a lot of dinosaur quilts!!!

    Eat Your Veggies is the collection I used for Daughter’s baby’s quilt and I love it. There’s a lot of it in The Big Ugly quilt because I had so much leftover.
