Alex's Quilt

Alex is my one year old son. I made this quilt for him from extra 4" squares I had laying around and I used a pattern I really liked online. I need to take a finished picture but haven't had the chance yet.

In the sections where the 4 big squares meet I quilted a heart. I googled heart outline, found one I liked then cut it out and pinned it to a piece of cardboard. I then traced the design with a red crayola marker onto the fabric and quilted around the hearts then threw the whole thing in the wash and had no problems with the marker coming out. It came out on the first wash and the quilt looks beautiful.

Alex really seems to enjoy it!
