.Dinohunt Quilt.

A few pattern announcements today...

First of all, its time for the release of Make It Perfect's seventh pattern!

Pattern #7: Dinohunt Quilt
This is a baby quilt like no other. Not only will it keep your precious one warm as they sleep and snuggle wrapped tightly in handmade love, it will also grow with your baby, becoming a place to play and dream.

Your baby will find great delight in exploring the ruffled strips on the quilt and discovering the hidden dinosaur prints underneath.

As your baby grows, his or her imagination will be stretched as the dinosaur pockets at the bottom of the quilt will turn into garages for cars to be parked in, caves for animals to roam, beds for dolls to sleep and a special place to hide treasures or to safely tuck a favourite toy into.

The pockets are also perfect to hold pyjamas, books and that special toy neatly on the bed, giving your older child somewhere to keep bedtime necessities and helping them to take responsibility for tidying up!

(p.s. little girls like dinosaurs too!!)

Dinohunt Quilt looks gorgeous and is sure to be a treasured quilt. Its simple to make and comes with pattern pieces, full instructions and a colour photograph.
The inspiration for this quilt came from my nephew Mason. My Mum makes each of her grandchildren a baby quilt when they are born and Mason became so attached to his. It wasn't just a blanket to be wrapped in, Mason's quilt went everywhere with him and he had hours of fun playing with his toy animals and cars with his quilt nestled snugly around him, making houses and caves for his little friends.

The second announcement is that you will soon be able to purchase my patterns from Duckcloth and Calico & Ivy. I have added their stores to my stores list to the right, their patterns are in transit at present, but should be in stock ready for ordering very soon!

And the THIRD (and probably most exciting for you) announcement, is that I am going to have a GIVEAWAY!!!

All you have to do is leave a comment on this post and one lucky person will win a free Dinohunt Quilt pattern.

The deadline for leaving a comment is midnight on Monday 21st April and I will choose a winner randomly (the old pick a name out of the hat trick!) and announce it on Tuesday morning! So...get on with it, leave a comment!

  17. Mason is honoured that he inspired your latest masterpiece. I can testify that girls Do like dinosaurs because Maya has about 16 in the bath with her every night. I imagine this pattern may have been harder that you other ones. I hope I win!
