DH flannel quilt
 

Hello everyone. Last Oct or Nov, I asked for advice on making a flannel quilt. I had never sewn with flannel before, and you guys gave me lots of great information. Well, I've finally finished it for him (just in time for spring!) and I thought you might want to see the results.

I pieced and quilted it on my vintage Viking 6570 whose photo I simply cannot upload for some reason. At any rate, I decided to keep the quilting simple, mainly because it's fairly big, so I went with SID vertically. In the center of the 6" blocks, I did a graceful serpentine stitch for variety. The border got two rows of straight stitching but I tried something new for the binding. Since I already had a serpentine stitch in the body, I went with a smaller serpentine on the binding to echo the body. It turned out pretty well. Hubby says he likes the "color palette", so I guess he has been listening!

Very nice quilt, and I, too, like the color palette.:)

Really nice quilt! Its gonna be really warm, being made with flannel, plus the colors are great!

I really like your color choices. It looks very nice.

I love it! It looks so comfy!

Wonderful looking quilt. Will be good and warm on those cold winter nights. Great job.

Thanks for all the kind words, folks. I couldn't have done it without you! And to be fair, DH chose the colors ... except for the cream. He wanted all darks, but I had to lighten it up a bit. Still, all in all, it turned out well, and he is as snug as a bug in a rug.

I like everything about this quilt and I'm sure he use it a lot!

Looks like a man quilt, love the colors and it will be nice and cozy when the cold weather comes back.

Very nice quilt, flannel quilts are so cozy :)
