My DH has been waiting for this for a long time. He asked for a patriotic quilt just for him and this is what I came up with. It is self designed, machine pieced and hand quilted (only 2nd one so far). Thanks for looking, hope you like it!!

That is one gorgeous quilt. If he doesn't like it,I'll take it. Just kidding. I love it and he will too.

Thank you!! He already has it and absolutely loves it. He loves eagles and the center is a Bible verse about eagles too.

I may have taken a while, But look how wonderful it came out! I bet he is thrilled.

My hubby's quilt is on the quilting table ready to go, but, it has been there for a month. Poor baby.

Lol, I laid this one to the side for about 6 months because I was intimidated by the thought of hand quilting one this big. I think he didn't believe he was ever going to actually get it. I have only done a table mat, a runner (both machine quilted), a crib quilt and this one (both of these hand quilted). Now that this one is finished, I am HOOKED!!! I have a table topper ready to quilt and a laberyrinth almost pieced and ready to quilt and about 5 ideas for other ones that I want to do now!! I love it!!! lol
