I posted up some pictures of my completed quilt top.

Well, it is finally finished. I sent it to Screwystewy for quilting.

I did the binding on it for the past couple of days and gave it to hubby today. He was speechless. He could not believe I did this for him. :)

Attached are a couple of quick snaps of him in the yard with it after the boys gave it to him.

Thanks again for all of the help and support. I would like to also thank Bobbie AKA texas granny for the Navy fabric.

I really like this. And the fleece as the backing will make it so nice and cuddly on a cold winter's eve! Good job.

Thank you. I got the fabric panel from fabric.com. The best part was it was delivered to my door and my hubby did not know it was in the house. LOL

Great quilt, and love the backing too. Was asked to make one for DD's BF who's a diehard steelers fan, UGH! Will have to keep an eye open for a fleece for his backing. Thanks for sharing. Nice work.

Where did you find the fleece for the backing - or what is it called so I can do a search? LOVE the WHOLE quilt.

It was fleece panel that I found on Fabric.com. I did a search for University of Florida and they had the panel. :lol:

Thanks again everyone. He has had a bit of a time, so the quilt is just that much more special.

He is definitely loved and appreciated. :)

GO GATORS! (I am a native Floridian) You did a great job and I can see that hubby is definitely pleased.

Lucy90 07-27-2011 08:01 AM

Great quilt and I love using the fleece of the Gators for the back. I use fleece on certain quilts and love the way it works and the softness of the quilt. I need to get some football fleece and put it on the back.
