The dinosaurs go marching on.. and!! Finished! or not - Friday

My adult had a birthday - and we all know he LOVES Dinosaurs. - So he needed a Dinosaur quilt for his birthday.

We found this super cool pattern called Marching Band by Atkinson Designs. In the instructions, it says to pay attention to the pieces on one of the blocks, as it is directional...and guess what? I did pay attention, just not the right attention - and ALL my blocks were backwards. 

I then decided that if I made the second block backwards I could probably fix it - and as I was thinking of this... I had an Ah ha moment.

What if I took a photo of the pattern and turned it around in my phone? 

And that WORKED!!


It is the complete opposite direction of the pattern that she wrote - and I will pay MUCH better attention when Teri says to pay attention - but!! HE LOVES it!!  It is a fun pattern and I love the way she writes her instructions, they make such sense to me. 

( Now to make a back and  quilt it before his next birthday)


That's him and his Puppy...
