Quilt for boy at Boy's Ranch
Our guild has sort of adopted a local Boy's Ranch, with boys from 12-18 years old. The boys get to take the quilts with them when they leave. There are 15 new arrivals at the ranch, and we are working on getting 15 boys-type quilts ready to deliver. I am not fond of making twin sized quilts, but it is for a good cause. Here is the top I just finished.
Two pictures, because, as it turns out, the sports fabric I selected sort of looks like leopard spots from a distance...oh well, I like it and I hope a teenage boy will. The back will be the football fabric, so it will sort of be reversible. I wish I had selected a different pattern to show off the fabrics better, but I didn't. It looks a lot different than I visualized. (The pattern is sort of a crazy quilt pattern...I have no name or real pattern of it that I can share. It is from a workshop I took years and years ago.)
