Next quilt! 'Hakuna Matata'

 

 

 

Hello Dear Readers.

 

Well hasn't this been a great quilting start to the new year?!

 

Two more quilts finished and gifted away!

 

This one is called 'Hakuna Matata' . You know, The song from the Lion King.

 

 

Hi Mum's Dear Readers, it Miss Lizzy here to tell you that an awful lot of Hakuna Matata was listened to on Spotify and sung along to by our Mum. It seemed to be necessary for the production of this quilt. I bet you have that song in your head for the rest of the day now!

 

Really! I leave the room for 5 minutes and the doggie takes over.

 

 

Right, after that doggie interlude time to get back to telling you about this quilt.

 

This one is a gift for my admin officers new baby.

 

 

 

I bought the middle panel fabric a number of years ago, 

The middle is actually a pillow panel so I have 3 more 

Simba panels to do something with.  

 

 An original design with the help of EQ7 program.

As an aside, did you know that my grandmother name is Kimba?

Have you ever heard of the Kimba vs Simba Controversy?

Basically, Disney stole the idea from the Japanese 60's cartoon, they even have similar ears....

Now Sandra, my my magnificent quilter, 

has done herself proud with this one.

 Its AMAZING!

 

The quilt pattern is called 'In the jungle'

I posted this off to the quilters last November, hoping to have it finished before the bub was born in January. He was a surprise as he arrived before Christmas!

The best bit is his name...

 Baby LEO!!!!! 

(I'm proud to say that my inner psychic child is very in tune at the moment)

I'm sending 'Mr Blue Sky' to the quilters next, but will wait 

until the weather is cooler to start the binding.

Then I have a surprise quilt for a friend that has been really challenging. 

(The quilt was challenging, not the friend,.... However, there's a thought there....) 

And, I'm also working on a wonderful quilt, using the 

most glorious aboriginal fabric, for another new bub.
