Again I joined all the Jelly Rolls in one long strip. I did however use 2 JR's this time, as I wanted it to be bigger than a lap quilt and cover his bed. After the first JR was used up. I joined strips from the next one until it was the right size. I used a brown for the backing and leftover JR strips for the binding.The quilting is just a large meandering pattern (quick!) . It was delivered this weekend and the guy was very happy with it.
Love the explanation of "sick"- I could never graps why my kids when they were teenagers used this term for good things.
ReplyDeleteLOL - this is a Great quilt for a guy! I never would have thought of it ... but will now, next time a bloke's b'day come up. Looks fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a nice quilt! (Even if it is "sick." Haha.) I haven't heard that description for good things. But it also sounds funny to me when a young guy says "Oh, sweeet!"
