Q131 – It’s A Roo – Quilt

Good Day,

Yes the kid gets a 2nd quilt, It’s A Roo. Really, really proud grandpa.



This is Andy’s and my 131st completed quilt… The new quilt is It's A Roo.

Do you know how hard it is to find fabric with just a Roo of A.A. Milne’s Kanga and Roo?

Roo is a nickname given to new grandson by his elder brother.

We found the Roo-appropriate fabric at Spoonflower -

1743657Kangaroopolka designed by MrsHervi;

# 2967644Pellerina Blue designed by MrsHervi; and

# 3373927Polka Dots Pale Turquoise by Andrea Lauren.

This was our first time using Spoonflower produced fabric. Would we do it again? Most definitely!

All-things-being-equal the Spoonflower produced fabric had to be pre-washed in order to eliminate the new and stiff feeling.

The completed and final size is approximately 40” wide and 45” long.

Enjoy,

Jim and Andy
