Drum Roll Please....


Nick and I had an absolute blast making his quilt together
and the finished product is so warm and cozy!!

I must say that we have both learned the valuable quilting lesson of
consistency in square sizes...and making the squares well, SQUARE!
But thankfully, this rag quilt hides a multitude of blunders!

    It looks great. You both did a fabulous job. And what a treasure someday for his kids - the quilt Dad & Grandma made together.

    Love it! Our WM has a whole new shipment of flannel. I thought of Nick's quilt, but restrained myself and will buy another day.
