Dragon Quilts

My son needs a quilt for his new full size bed, and requested that it have a dragon theme.  Found this beautiful fabric at http://fabric.com/.  So it looks like I'm going to have to find an Asian themed quilt design. 

After ordering 4 yards, I showed it to DS2, who told me DS1 wants one too.  Dang!  Had I ordered them at the same time I could have had free shipping. 

Anyway, I'd like to make the two quilts similar, but different.  Will have to put my thinking cap on!  :)

Challenges

There's only one good thing I can say about this deflated excuse for a loaf of bread.  It prompted me to take a break from gluten free baking.  Paid $7.29 a loaf for two loaves from a local bakery.  The homemade breads taste far better, but I got tired of wasting my time.  GF baking has been a challenge!  But, being liberated from kitchen detail, I began combing through bags of jeans waiting to be recycled into quilts, bags or what-have-you.  In doing so, I came across another challenge.



These two dragons are in my jeans collection.  Both were worn by DS2 until they completely disintegrated.  He wants me to "save" the dragons and work them into some sort of quilty project.  I can't make a full sized quilt out of just two dragons....so I either have to make a small quilt or find more dragons.  Will have to put that on the back burner as I'm fresh out of ideas! :)
