another I Spy quilt

This I Spy quilt is for grandson JJ who just turned 1.  I finished it about 2 weeks ago but am a bit behind with my blogging.  Anyone notice?  it seems a lot of my favorite blogs are not posting too often -I think everyone is busy.  

so, here it is.   I think this is my 4th quilt finish for 2014.

 I tried to use prints that had some meaning to JJ and his family.  The sewing mouse on the spool is because I sew.  The tractors for his tractor loving cousins.

 JJ's family visits the beach most every summer so the little beach boy and seashells really suit them.

the funny chicken fabric came from my Aunt Evelyn's scrap box.  

 these last 3 are all turned wrong but I am on the big PC instead of my Ipad and can't get them to turn.  

a golfer because his daddy is a golf coach
a dinosaur because of his 1st party's theme

cowboys and a coyote because we live in Oklahoma

The church sort of resembles our church

JJ had a very fun dinosaur 1st birthday party and enjoyed his cake about as much as anyone could.  

He ate a little of the cake but it was mostly a wonderful plaything. 

some grow, some don't

another picture of another batch of celery and romaine ends- trying to be regrown in saucers of water

there were all started within a few days of each other.  

One Romaine took off growing and looks great,  it has been planted outdoors and continues to grow. 

But the other 4 didn't grow a bit

the celery is trying to grow in the center- but I have no guess on whether or not it will

in the background,  I was making  a big salad for Saturday supper.   

Yes, I saved those romaine ends too
