I had yet to discover Tonya's Lazy Gal groups when I began this quilt, so I was on my own in the beginning. My niece likes funky, fun fabric and colors and he likes the Beatles (the singing group - not the bugs). This is my take on their wishes for a "snuggle" quilt. I have it completed, washed and ready to give to the couple.Here is the front of the quilt. I have now learned a bit about watching my contrasts more closely, so that the letters will show up well.
And here is the back of the quilt.
Now I am off to work on some humbugs.

It looks like you captured their personalities perfectly? What a wonderful gift, to get a quilt that is so fun and so personalized.
You did great! :)
that is one great gift.......
love the back too!
It is one of a kind and I hope they love it forever.
Happy sewing
Love it, Mary. both sides have so much personality. That stinking contrast - sometimes you have to learn the hard way. I've unfortunately made quite a few letter quilts that are practically unreadable because of that. sigh.
I love this quilt. Can't wait to see the humbugs!
what a wonderful quilt - I love it! I bought fabric to make my humbugs today. We will see:))
Wonderful! And, it's great to learn as we go along.
Great quilt and sentiments! Bet your Niece loved it. Nicely done.
I can't wait until I can check out your new book. I haven't seen any up in my neck of the woods yet but I am on the lookout for it and will snap it up when I can. Congratulations! Jane
