A FINISH!

The quilting on the Sock Monkey quilt is finished!
Remember the game called Barrel of Monkeys--the center of the design reminded me of the arms that hooked together!
And the backing--it is a bunch of sock monkeys on Minky fabric--the blanket is made to hug!
 On the yarn front, I have finished the block for this month in Tunisian Crochet! The blanket has grown to half its size!

  1. *Gasp* That is the most perfect backing for the blanket. I do remember the game, Barrel of Monkey's. We always played it at my Grandma & Grandpa's house and you're right that the swirls are like the arms of the monkey's in the game.
    Whoever gets this blanket will be the luckiest of kids. Do you know where it's going?
    Blessings,

  2. Who doesn't smile when they see a sock monkey??? Stephen's Grammy had the Barrels of Monkeys game.
