It's a perfect "man quilt." He did a great job with the design and you did a great job with the rest. :)

Thank you so much. I found feathers to be easy but crosshatching was the hardest thing I've ever tried to do.

If he's happy...that's what counts. Looks good and will keep him warm when you aren't together.

Don't be hard on yourself!! This is truly a learning tool...the longarm is a tool that takes a long time to get really good at. Practice, practice, practice!! I only have a short arm and I am still practicing different stitches after 4 years!!! :-) Be patient! You'll get there. This one looks good....and don't mind about the picking out...everyone does their share of that chore!
