While I did love the Disney princesses when I was little, I have always loved dinosaurs. Real ones, not the cutesy little stupid ones. I remember I used to ask my mom as a kid if T-Rex was real, if he could look in our windows. He probably could have!
So I have grown into an adult who loves dinosaurs. Too bad paleontology doesn't pay, because that is a field I'd love to be in. I watch as many documentaries as I can, and I read as many articles and studies as possible. One of the things I have always whined about as a quilter is that all the dinosaur fabric on the market is not only targeted to kids only, pretty much to boys exclusively, but they're always cartoony. I mean, I get it, some kids are scared of dinos, but many aren't. But they get cartoony, dummy dinos. Ick.
Until Michael Searle designed this.
