Lap quilt for Australian Winter

This lap quilt is again a scrappy, made for my DD's partner for his birthday. "Strong" man says "I don't need a lap quilt....." but keeps pinching my daughter's

so now he's got his own which hopefully will keep him warm in the evenings while he watches TV in his recliner. Thanks for looking!!!

Where did my reply go. Take 2 I didn't realise you had cold winters. Love the idea of sitting on a recliner doing nothing men are so good at this.

Nice quilt...funny how the (pinching) of the quilts go..my husband didn't want one either, until my dil made me a fleece throw. She had to make him one too. Extra long for recliner use, now it's like his baby blanky...never with out it!

Love the pattern and it's so interesting to look at fabrics that are so different from what I see here in the midwest. Very nice!

Seen in the news tonight that you were expecting some snow.....at least it's not that bad here but my son had to scrape the ice of his windscreen this morning = 2° and he lives only 10 min. away....
