    Default Mike's Brown Quilt

    I made this for my eldest stepson. He's Native Alaskan so it has a lot of Native American symbols in the quilting. It's a broken dish pattern, and the quilt is 100x100.

    How nice to see a "guy" quilt. All too often we make girlie quilts and then the guys in our lives wonder what's the big deal all about. (after all, its just a blanket!) Many wishes for Mike to have sweet dreams under his beautiful quilt.

    Very pretty! I love brown, and quilts are usually every other color but brown! He will love it!

    That is a very handsome quilt. I believe Mike will be amazed at how special it is.

    It has a 'quiet glow' to it.

    I like it a lot.

    What a great description of your beautiful quilt. It does have a quiet (but manly... LOL!) beauty. I know Mike will have many peaceful nights under this wonderful quilt.
