This quilt is larger than a king size sheet and is very heavy. I did not use any batting due to the weight already. It took two people standing in the back of a pick-up truck to hold it up for me to take these pictures. It was made for a friend's son for his birthday (today). I was glad to have it ready in time. Another gifted project.

very very cool! and big! lol

what makes it so heavy?

Job well done. He will love it!

That is very impressive. Nice work.

Great job Mary,,,,you work fast !!!!! I know he'll be proud of this gift of love !!!!

The 36 double thickness blocks, 18" square is what makes it so heavy.

That is a great quilt.

My neice and her boyfriend are both volunteer fire fighters with the North Lincoln Fire district in Lincoln City OR. So I know she would love this quilt if she saw it.

Great job. Did you stitch in the ditch? It's such a big quilt.

I did not use any batting due to the fact that it is double thickness. The sashing is stitched on both edges, so I think that is all I needed as far as the "quilting" process goes. It is one heavy quilt, that is for sure.

Very nice
