Tom's quilt

This is a tradition in my family..each of my nieces and nephews gets a quilt for their first birthday. My youngest nephew Tom received his quilt this past August when he visited for Naunny and Grampa's 50th wedding anniversary!

It is a "stack and Whack" variation using one fabric, layered in 6 identical repeats, then cut into triangles to be pieced into hexagons. The hexagons were sorted by color and pattern then sewn back together into the top.

The quilt measures approximately 54 x 68 and very nice size to carry him through the first decade!

I finished off the quilt with a pillow case to match using the original fabric that was sliced and diced..primary colored frogs on an active leaf background!
