Default My DH's quilt that took me nearly a year....
This quilt took me nearly a year to make. I wanted to have it for Father's Day, but time passed. I was busy making other quilts for sale, doing customer long arm work and life got busy. I couldn't decide what fabric to use for the backing so decided to piece that also.
The bear fabric is a 'cheater' fabric, but I did fussy cut and frame some of them.
I did the long arm work on my Nolting Fun quilter using both computer designs and free motion in outlining the bears.
Overall measures 84" x 104".

Thanks for looking.

Absolutely beautiful. Your choice of fabrics are great and who cares that you used a cheater fabric to cut up and put in your special designs. This is a winner.
