Paranoid Tom was the featured quilt of the week in the November 22, 2009 edition of the Start Your Week With a Quilt newsletter. It was created by Aleathia Chisolm whose web site is www.eclecticquilts.com.
With Thanksgiving coming up, this colorful guy has a right to be paranoid. Let’s hope that he will be spared.
Aleathia appliqued Tom’s colorful feathers and other body parts. She then surrounded him with a colorful pin wheel border. The machine quilting was done by Maxine Moore.
This cute little quilt would brighten any holiday decor. So if you are planning to stuff a turkey on Thanksgiving, choose one that is less colorful.
