Some of you may recognize this as the going-off-to-college quilt for my son that I've been working on for several weeks. I managed to complete 18 blocks by his 18th birthday yesterday. Ten more to go...I would normally make this a 4x6 quilt, but since the dorm beds are extra long twin-size, I'll add a 7th row. And then probably a small border in black.
P.S. Go visit Judy's blog to see what's on other quilters' design walls today...
It is looking just wonderful, Anya!! He will love it!

ReplyDeleteI really love how this quilt is playing out for Nick. You do such a variety of work but I think you really are making something which Nick will always treasure.
ReplyDeletelove the look and always good to make 'em a bit longer especially for the dorm.
