I love the Very Hungry Caterpillar. The Boy's room is decorated in that theme, and I made him a crib quilt before he was born using the vibrant Very Hungry Caterpillar fabrics. I've also made him an apron and chef's hat with the fabric. It is so fun to work with!
Now that he's been transitioned to a twin-sized bed for quite a while, it's time I start thinking about making him a bed quilt. Trouble is, The Girl is also in a twin bed now and I haven't even finished her baby quilt! So, while The Boy's bed quilt is not atop the to do list, I did decide on a pattern and purchase the additional fabric to supplement what I have left in my stash from previous projects. I'll be using Fat Quarter Shop's free new pattern, Fat Quarter Fizz, for this project.
I also did a small amount of impulse shopping for the stash, 1) Michelle Engel Bencsko, House and Garden, Straw Hat in Yellow and 2) Makower UK, Jolly Farm, Abstract in Blue:
I'm linking up with Molli Sparkles for Sunday Stash.

I really like that chevron print... who designed that one? The colour is really great!
Very Hungry Caterpillar was one of my favourite books when I was a kid.. that fabric makes me nostalgic :D
