Another comfort quilt

This one is ready to go to a dear relative who is facing some serious health issues and will be having surgery soon. I was glad to have this UFO that just needed quilting. I just hope it's big enough. This guy is 6 ft tall.

Beautiful, intricate pattern.

Fantastic quilt he sure will appreciate the love and time that went into doing it for him.

I think it is a great looking quilt. I know it will be treasured.

I love scrappy quilts but have a terrible time trying to sew them. I think I am OCD when it comes to piecing...lol

DebraK 01-19-2016 05:40 AM

it's lovely. I'm sure it will be of comfort.

I love your quilt. I am getting ready to make one for a grandson-in-law who is 6'8". I am dreading it. Will be a simple quilting pattern I have already decided.

Great manly quilt and surely looks big enough.

faykilgore 01-19-2016 06:05 AM

I love the colors and the pattern. I really had to focus to see how the actual "block" was made. I pray it give him comfort and healing.

Such a lovely scrappy quilt. I am sure he will appreciate it as he recovers.

luvstoquilt 01-19-2016 06:37 AM

Great quilt! I know he will love it. Wishing him a speedy recovery!

Stunning quilt; the recipient will be thrilled.

Grandma Bonnie 01-19-2016 07:22 AM

It is beautiful and it looks masculine! He will love it and it will be comforting to him. Best wishes for a speedy recovery for him!

Beautiful quilt that I bet he loves! So kind of you!

I love this. Can you tell me how large the 4 block is? Love how you placed the blocks. This pattern is something I would like to do. Hope it turns out as super as yours. BrendaK

I think the 4-patches were made with 2-inch squares. However, since the quilt is now on its way I can't verify that.

WOW!!! That is awesome. Thanks for showing it.

QUILTNMO 01-19-2016 01:18 PM

great quilt !!

lynnie 01-19-2016 01:39 PM

I love the quilt. I want to make this design out of scraps too. Great design

javin22 01-19-2016 02:33 PM

Nice scrappy!!

Cam's gram 01-19-2016 03:08 PM

Beautiful! Love scrappy quilts.

Bree123 01-19-2016 03:55 PM

Lovely quilt. I'm sure it will be cherished.

I'm 5'11" and like my lap quilts to be 60-65" square which allows me to tuck it under my feet and cover up to my neck. If you made the squares each 1.5" or larger, the quilt will definitely be long & wide enough to cover him. If they were 2" squares, it should pretty much cover the entire bed (that would mean it's about 8' x 6').

kiffie2413 01-19-2016 04:05 PM

That's beautiful! What stood out to me is I saw lots of crosses that look like they're peeking out of the diagonal lines.
Regards,
K

A beautiful scrappy quilt - and I'm sure it will be very much appreciated. Very thoughtful of you.

Great quilt to bring warmth and comfort to someone facing difficult surgery and recovery. It is truly beautiful and very masculine looking. I really like the scrappy look of this quilt.

jmoore 01-20-2016 04:22 AM

beautiful scrappy quilt... I love the contrast and layout of the blocks/rows and with the border you chose... it made it masculine. I'm sure he will treasure it.

Moonglow 01-20-2016 04:25 AM

annette1952 01-20-2016 04:31 AM
