FO: Corvin's quilt

Little Corvin was here the other day...
He's almost a year old with a birthday coming up in November. So I'm pleased to say...
His quilt is done in plenty of time! Okay... really, it was suppose to be a present for his birth... but luckily babies don't outgrow quilts as quickly as they do sweaters. I collected fabric from a couple different sources to pull together a guitar/music/pawprint/colourful theme.
I was able to get a full yard of the red chevron fabric in the remnant bin at Lens, and it was the perfect amount for backing and binding. Mom did all the hard work of sandwiching and quilting for me, but I finished off the binding (Though she folded and ironed it all down for me, because I'm spoiled!)

And now that I actually have one completed quilt, I don't feel quite so guilty about buying all those batiks....
