new quilts for jonathan


i've been meaning to post about the quilt that my mom made for jonathan for a while now, but hadn't gotten around to it. when we went to boise, my mother-in-law gave us another quilt for jonathan, so i  figured i'd post about both of them at the same time. it's pretty nice having two mothers who quilt, takes the pressure off of me to make any baby quilts. and you can never have too many quilts, right?

jeanie made jonathan a train quilt. she paper pieced each engine and car, which is extremely impressive. if i had been doing that, he would have ended up with a single quilted bumper pad, maybe. 
 

i love the quilting on the wheels, and there is steam coming out of the engine.


jonathan enjoyed the quilt as well. 


this is the best picture that i have of the quilt my mom made for jonathan. sadly, i'm being too lazy to take another one right now, but it is the quilt that is in the video of jonathan rolling over, and there is a beautiful picture of it over on my mom's blog.

this boy is already spoiled.

He's so easy to spoil. I just love Jeanie's quilt. When you see it from far away the background fabric has a feeling of clouds - almost like steam.
