Remember the stack of squares I showed you in May? If not, I can't say that I blame you. If so...thanks! Well, what I didn't tell you at the time was that stack of squares was for both a Mario and a Luigi quilt. I initially planned to keep the Mario quilt for myself and give the Luigi quilt as a Christmas present. What I didn't know is that Ari would eventually claim the Mario quilt as his own, leaving me without the new quilt I was wanting. He was so excited when it was finished and it looked so good in his room, I more than happy to let him use it.
I decided to keep the Luigi quilt for myself, and I ended up making the Link quilt to give as a Christmas present. Even though I had all the squares cut for the Luigi quilt, I made the Link quilt and the Colts quilt first since I needed to have them finished before Christmas. After those quilts were made, it took me some time to get motivated to finish Luigi. Much to my surprise, once I finished the Luigi quilt Ari claimed it for himself, preferring to have it on his bed instead of Mario. I gladly indulged the boy, and I ended up with my Mario quilt after all. It's funny how things work out sometimes.
