Close ups of the Coral Reef quilt

Once I had the background materials ironed together using fusible web (wonder under). I began embroidering.

Here is more embroidery

I had to add "Sweet Pea" our Sun Conure, bird. When Lucas was a baby, Sweet Pea took it upon himself to be Lucas' "protector" which included attacking Lucas' dad and anyone who wasn't Grandma (me) if that person tried to get near the baby. I loved it, everyone else... not so much.

Sweet Pea doesn't really go with the coral reef theme, but I added him to protect Lucas from bad dreams at night.

Now the embellisments or according to Lucas, "the touchy parts"

I finished Lucas' quilt at my sister's house in MO. I had great help. First was inspection by Ben the kitten.

And then there was the walk about by both kittens, Ben and Jerry.

Over all, the quilt was a success.
