This week I finished up my Lizzy House Dinosaur quilt….
Over the summer I taught a wonderful group of young ladies (aged 10 – 14) how to make a quilt. Blocks from my test run of that class are what made up this wonderfully fun quilt…
The pattern is a simple rail fence variation….
all you do is cut strips 3 inches wide by the length of the fabric (usually 42 inches long)… then you sew four of these strips together… then you cut out 10 1/2 inch blocks… easy peasy.
The highlight of this quilt is of course the dinosaurs…. oh how I love those dinosaurs….
Oh and there is butterflies as well, of course….
A simple backing…..
and binding using a fabulous ombre fabric I found in my stash and a couple of scraps.
And there you have it, a simple fun kids quilt….and I have another quilt done for 100 Quilts for Kids.

WOMBAT QUILTS 
What a lovely quilt – simple but lovely 🙂
Even though the pattern is the simple rail fence, the way you cut the”Pearl” fabric gives motion to the quilt and makes it so much more interesting. Love your work.
Thanks Mary. I have a Pearl Bracelet obsession and you are so right about the movement it gives.
Now that’s what I call cheerful!
Yes, love the Pearl Bracelets as well. Super Fun!
Yes, it’s a simple pattern, but the sheer joy and exuberance of the colours lifts it into the really special bracket. Fabulous dinosaurs!
Love this quilt–the dinos and bracelets really make it so cute!! Hugs, Julierose
What a fantastic quilt; simple but effective and I love the dinosaurs!
Great colors!
