    I made this lap quilt for a friend's husband who plays multiple instruments. The pattern is Cheaper by the Dozen, which is so easy. Since it was for a guy, I kept the quilting simple...just SID and a few more straight lines. First time I've used Hobbs Polydown batting and boy did it sew nicely!!

    It's so cool! It would be a great graduation quilt for a grandson who graduates next year and loves guitars. Thanks for the inspiration!
