Jenny Doan does such beautiful quilts and the tutorials are the best easy to use. This quilt is to die for. Great quilt!

What a lucky cousin! I hope he appreciates this beautiful quilt. I'd be thrilled if my hubby would help me with cutting out quilt pieces. You are so Blessed.

I would not trust my hubby to cut with a rotory blade. I hope this doesn't sound bad, but, I would just feel so bad if he hurt himself.
That being said, I love the quilt. I know the family will be so thrilled to recieve it.

Tootsie…this is a gorgeous quilt! Seriously…I love this. They’ll be thrilled to receive this from you and Hubbie.. if not, they are idiots.

I do the cutting , he just holds my ruler down so it doesn't shift on me.
The couple was very surprised and grateful. His wife told me she only had two quilts and neither one bed size. One her grandmother made years ago out of double knit squares and some of the batting was knotted up and a few squares completely gone. She said she used it, her kids used it and then her grandkids, just to cover and watch TV. The other one is almost full size. She won it in a fund raiser raffle at work. She said she just took one chance to help them out and won! It was a wedding ring, too!

They were awed I think. Wife was vocal but cousin was quite. It took them by surprise but she was tickled pink.-lol
Hubby doesn't do the actual cutting but he holds my rulers from slipping of shifting. Poor thing. Since my back is giving me the devil and I wanted to work on my projects, 2 quilts to quilt and another one to cut out and quilt for CASA, they needed BOY quilts he has been trying to press my seams so I don't have to get up and down or twist around.
He told my sister yesterday he got fired from ironing.-lol - I said no, he quit!
The problem is first he is left handed and I am right. When I showed him 3 times you press with dark side up to set the seam, not iron, then flip and press, he did the fourth corner .... wrong! He argued that he did it the same as me. I told him no, you didn't and turned it over it so he could see 3 seam allowances of the snowball was going toward the dark and 1 going toward the white. He threw his hands up and walked out!
I finished 20 more blocks then went to have a bath. While I was bathing he went in with those 20 blocks and pressed every one of the the right way! I knew he would-lol
I understand how I do things seems backwards to him and also how he does seems backwards to me. It doesn't matter as long as the end result is right.
My sister just laughed when he said he got fired from IRONING and I said he quit his PRESSING job!-lol

This is beautiful! I love the colors! And I have never thought about how all the quilting actually makes the quilt smaller. The only time I’ve noticed this is on the king-sized quilt I just made. I thought I had made a mistake calculating the width of my border. Now I know I need to allow extra for shrinkage. Thanks!

Toogie, your work is always so beautiful and your quilts are so appealing. I'm always inspired (and a little intimidated) by what you can do with fabric and thread! Thanks for sharing. :-)
