Bugs and Blood for Amber

Little A is a fearless creature at age 6.  She likes bugs, and I think her favorite topic might be blood and stories that feature plenty of blood and gore.  Other peoples and even her own!  So when I found the fabric with blood spatter on quilt run, I knew it needed to be on her cuddle quilt for Grandma Anne's house!
The other fabrics include animal skins, bugs, a darling Dr Seuss fabric that says 'I like you!" skeletons and pirates, sharks, and dancing toys.

Skellies and Geese for Miranda

This quilt is a cuddle quilt for Miranda to use when she is visiting Grandma Anne. I think it suits her.  Made when she was 14, it has feminine colors (but not girly) a strong symmetry, great skeletons in the borders, and he wild zig zag that she fell in love with when she saw it.
I bought the fabrics all at Quilt Run 2015.  At first, the skellies were for a different quilt, but I realized this is where they needed to be!
