This quilt is made from my Four Corners pattern, and it's for my one-year-old grandson. When his parents were trying to decide on a theme for the nursery they had several that they liked and had trouble choosing. So I decided to make him a quilt that incorporates all the ideas they mentioned - pirates, ocean, space, and dinosaurs. While the little monsters aren't necessarily aliens, I thought they seemed kinda space themed. Also the fabric for the backing has bear astronauts, so I think space is sufficiently covered.
I think that I have everything I need to finish this one up, so the next thing on my agenda is to quilt this one. The problem is deciding how to approach the quilting. I don't know if I want to do diagonal lines, concentric squares, or something else.
As a side note, I'm not 100% sold on this quilt pattern. I feel like maybe it has a little too much background fabric, but I'm not sure. I always intended it to have something of a modernist look to it, but it might need a little tweaking. I'm thinking about it.
