I think there may be tutorials on this board. The technique that I use for QAYG is found on this website:

I do modify it a bit in terms of the order that I do things, but use their basic system. It works for me!

I think this is just the cutest quilt for a teenage boy! Such an icon for this era too.

You did a great job choosing fabrics to make the skateboard look like each had a cool paint job done. It is on my honey do list to make.

Thanks for putting this qyag up here. I like this idea and will go watch the link. Your quilt is beautiful and very colourful and cheery for a young man or even young gal that scateboards. I really like this pattern for the kids.
