Max turned one a couple weeks ago, and I wanted to be sure to get this mosaic posted (better late than never!). I had fun photographing him on a different quilt each month, though it definitely became increasingly difficult to get him to lay still while I snapped my photo!
(bribery became necessary!)
What a great year we’ve had!

He just gets cuter, doesn’t he? Have fun!
Your backgrounds could be the star except for MAX. Best wishes to you both!
Happy birthday Max. He is a great model.
Time goes so fast. He is such a doll. Happy one year to all of you

I’ve so enjoyed these photos as they came, and it’s nice to see them all together. What a little sweetie!
Gosh, they grow so fast, hard to believe it’s been a year already! He’s too cute!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!

He’s adorable!!
Those eyes just make you melt!!! Happy Birthday Max!!
Wow, he is so stinkin’ cute. Are you getting snowed on today???
Max is so handsome, it’s been great watching him grow. Thanks. (You thought we were here for the quilts!)
Love it!
What a handsome boy! Isn’t motherhood the best?
What a cutie! Love all those quilts in the background too!
He is A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E., Ashley!!! Love the idea of the different quilts each month. You can really see how he’s grown!! I wish I didn’t live so far away- I’d babysit in a second!!
You have a very nice blog here.
I’m trying to get to see your tutorials and some others like “clothes” but I get this message to pop up;
Warning: Something’s Not Right Here!
Do you know about it?

Ursula — I had a similar problem yesterday. Was looking at some of the other quilts and I kept getting a message popping up that this site had been tagged as a site that attaches unwanted links to your computer. Hoping Ashley will investigate to see if she has been hacked.
Thank you for letting me know. I am aware of the problem, and in fact will be moving my blog this weekend. Hopefully that will solve the issue!
Well that year certainly flew by, didn’t it? He’s precious and isn’t life just grand?! Hang on, it’s going to get even better! Happy Birthday to your sweet boy!
Congratulations! He has the sweetest, brightest twinkly eyes! (and gorgeous coloring… my word!)
Happy Birthday sweet boy!
Ohhh, he is such a doll! You bring a smile to my face every time you post a pic of him. I bet you could just eat him up!
He is so cute! I had a baby boy in Feburary and am thinking pictures with quilts is a great idea. I will have to start one month late!
Such a great idea! Your “patchwork” display of your “creations” is simply adorable. Congrats on making sure that you captured every precious month!
He’s such a cutie!!! Happy birthday lil man
One already?!?!? Goodness – that went fast didn’t it? He is just the cutest Ashley! xoxo
Happy Birthday little guy!
What a handsome little fellow! And a perfect way to profile your work. Love the collection of quilts.
Max is adorable! I love his big eyes and that last picture with his prize.
Max sure is a cutie!
He’s just so cute! A wonderful mosaic of baby and quilts. Pretty cool.
My nephew is just over one and becomes harder to photograph by the minute…. Enjoy year two!
Love the mosaic and happy birthday to Max!
Max is such a cutie. Thanks for sharing the year with us.
What an adorable baby. Congrats. Lucky to play around of so many beautiful quilts!
Wow, one! What a lovely set of photos of a gorgeous boy (and gorgeous quilts, of course!)
And how cute he is! Happy birthday, Max!
Wonderful! Beautiful mosaic. Great idea… Max in white with colorful quilts. Looks like a birthday card for each grandparent!
What a sweetie! Happy Birthday, Max!
Happy birthday, Max! Your mosaic is wonderful. I wish I’d done something like that when my son was young.
your quilts are lovely. but your model just steals the show. so very adorable. you have a looker on your hands. LOL
Absolutely Priceless!
Fantastic pictorial!
I don’t comment ever but read your blog weekly. This post deserved a comment! Max is SO precious and so is your family. Many blessings to Max and your family! This photo collage brought a smile to my face. So sweet! I also love your quilting.
What a fantastic collage!!! So many beautiful quilts and one adorable baby.
Hasn’t the year just flown by? Your quilts are amazing — yours was the first website that I ever bookmarked for inspiration and your talent continues to astound me. I don’t know if you are aware, but when I went to your actual website and clicked on a couple of the quilts to get a close up look a message came on my screen saying they are linked to an ‘attack site’ that might put unwanted programs on the computer. Just wanted to give a heads up that maybe someone has hacked your site making it impossible for others to look at your older quilt posts. HOPE NOT!!
What a lovely way to memorialize every month of his precious first year of life!
Thanks so much for sharing…..
It’s possible that Max is the cutest baby ever.
Happy Birthday to Max!! He is just adorable
Gosh, they sure grow so fast.
I love the backdrops for the photos. What a proud mama you must be!
He’s gorgeous, congratulations! If Max is 1 that means I’ve been being inspired by your blog and those lovley quilts for just over a year. It,s gone fast!
Max is so adorable. I LOVE the mosaic. Crazy how fast a year goes by, huh?
What pattern is that last quilt, where he is sitting up with the cupful of Cheerios? Is it merely a square made up of three triangles of one color with a white one finishing it off?
Thanks! Kate
Thank you for all the pics. He is just so adorable.
Congratulations!! One year is such a fun age. When my second baby turned one he had his first cupcake. He liked it so much that I gave him a second. That was apparently too much because he threw up later. Poor little guy. This mama felt bad! Max is such a cutie! It has been fun seeing him grow and I have really enjoyed the quilts also!
The mosaic is great, i’d get it printed just as it is!! P.S. Congrats on making it one year!
happy birthday Max!
wow what a cute idea, so colorful and fun and he´s adorable.
Honestly, I don’t think they get any cuter than that!
Congratulations! He’s just absolutely adorable. How wonderful that you captured his photo each month on a new quilt. I know it’s easy to get caught up being busy and forget to regularly record those precious times.
So cute. I love the quilt in the last picture (with the bribery). Do you know what that pattern is called? Thanks.
No way! He can’t already be one, can he?? Ah, but that mosaic is too adorable!
