Son's Birthday Quilt

Back in May, I made a quilt for my daughter's birthday.  Ever since then, my son has been asking me for a quilt of his own.  How could I resist?  He is such a sweet boy with a wonderful sense of humor.  I had fun picking out his fabrics and putting this one together.

I chose the Greek cross pattern without the half-squared triangles in the corners.  I also pulled out the deep teal, lime, and coral to accent throughout the quilt.

This pattern is pretty easy to assemble.

I used the scraps to make up the back.  

The colorful chevron print was the perfect fabric for the binding since it ties everything together.

Here's the birthday boy!  It's not unusual to find him sitting next to me while I sew to help me press "the button" (a.k.a. the thread cutting button).  He's such a helper.  :)

Now it's time to enjoy the festivities!
