    Talking My Nephew's all American Quilt

    Hi
    I finally found one picture of the quilt that I made for my nephew. He was only at my house for less than an hour, basically for an airport run, so time was not on my side this past July 4th Holiday, I saw him at his mom's house a few days later, but didn't have my camera. Unfortunately, it is folded several times, so you really can't see the whole quilt. It is really a heavy quilt, stressed me out trying to bind it. I followed the Missouri Star Quilt Company's tutorial on making a crazy template quilts. I started with the medium size template and just kept building the block till it reached 15", some of this was make with scraps that I had and some were new purchases.
    Thanks for your support
