Finished in 2011 No.s 7 & 8

My friends, Natalie & Melissa, helped me make these two quilts. They were shipped off to Florida where they will be waiting to welcome a pair of twins home next month when they are picked up in Bulgaria. Our dear friends have had a loooooong wait for a family and we are so excited that they will soon be a family of four through adoption. We hope to meet little Jonathon and Madison someday, too, but we'll wait as patiently as we can while they adjust to their new home & family. We're hoping these quilts bring them a bit of comfort as they transition. And we hope they get to take them to the beach! They are just so bright and cheery, don't they look like they belong at the beach? I used a tutorial from the Cluck, Cluck, Sew blog to make these (it was super easy) and my Mom and I had so much fun picking out the fabric for these. They are the same except one fabric and the backs. Madison's has a sock monkey theme and Jonathon's has an elephant theme.
