Cuuuute!  Calvin and Hobbes!  Is it a lap quilt? I can't see how big it is.  Any chance of getting a bigger picture of the comic part?  It looks super adorable!

Oh, this is too cute! Cheesy Calvin and Hobbes rocks! I love how you took one of the comics that looks like Calvin drew it, and I'd love to see some detailed shots of it. Great job!
