Our dear friends, for whom the "Glewwe Quilt" is a rite of passage when each of their children moves from their crib to a big boy/girl bed, announced to us that they were expecting their 8th by having number 7 record a video saying they needed another Glewwe Quilt!
So, we delightedly began sewing, with the fun addition of two pairs of the new baby's dad's jeans to incorporate into the mix. As a summer baby, we picked a bright, cheery, strawberry print for the fleece backing. And a funny detail: while we always make these quilts 10 squares wide by 14 squares long, we accidentally laid this one out 10x15, so hers is a little bigger than her siblings! I didn't notice until I was tying the quilt and realized that the corners on one side weren't coming out the way they always do (with a tie in each corner when I do every other. Ha! Jokes on me!)
Gloria, Rinnah, and Evania all helped me a bit on this one, both laying out and sewing, and Evania trimmed all the yarn ties for me at the end.
