Spring Quilt Festival 2012 - Jacob's Dream

Its time for the Spring Bloggers' Quilt Festival at Amy's Creative Side. The festival starts today and lasts for a couple of weeks, so there's plenty of time to enter and look at all the beautiful quilts!

The quilt I am entering is "Jacob's Dream", which is the quilt I made for my son, Jacob, earlier this year. I made this quilt in masculine fabrics of all kinds using the Jacob's Ladder quilt block.

"JACOB'S DREAM"






Love the blue skies:



On a chair in the kitchen in the sunshine:









On a bench:






My son, Jacob:





Sweet Dreams!
