Boy Scout Quilt
1 Attachment(s)
I promissed to make a quilt for a fund raiser our Boy Scout troupe has every year. I got the fabrics early and that is when the troubles started. Coming up with a pattern and ideas for the panel I got was like pulling a tooth. Finally came up with very simple design, no particular pattern, large blocks, and some applique and sashing. Everything was fighting me every step of the way - the thread, the fabric, the machines, the binding (oh the binding was a horror story) - everything. I could not wait to finally finish it. It is finally done, washed and soon it will be handed over to the scouts. This is the first time I am actually glad to see a quilt I made go away. No separation anxiety this time :) I hope the boys like it and since it will be a part of the Chinese auction, I hope it brings in some funds for the troupe.

It is great and worth the struggles. Good luck with the auction.

Tashana,
It is wonderful! I can't tell you how happy it makes me tonight, on the eve of my own son's Eagle Scout ceremony this weekend. |
Wow , this is very nice.

It might have been a battle to finish it but you won the war. It looks great!:thumbup:
|
I think it's wonderful! Sorry it gave you so much trouble ~ I'm sure it will bring in a tidy sum!
|
How cool is this ! It is a great commemorative quilt to the Boy Scouts!

I am the proud mother of two eagle scouts and order of the arrow also. I like to think it was instrumental in making them successful mature men today. A great organization for youngsters. The quilt is wonderful.
