    I've made lap quilts for my mom and sisters, so my brother asked me to make him one. He said it needed to be bigger (he's a big guy), and he likes reds. Everything else was up to me, so I made him this Double Irish Chain with the seminole border. This pattern goes together pretty quickly and only uses three fabrics. I also backed it in the red.

    Sounds funny but that's a real macho quilt. Great choices.
