He is doing a wonderful job, tell him to keep up the good work. I love that men quilt, my husband would never even try, unfortunately.

Very nice job, my husband cannot even sew on a button or thread a needle. I told my special needs brother one time I was going to buy someone a needle and some thread, he said sis they wouldn't know which end of the needle to thread I had to laugh bless his heart. I love him so dearly.

I had to teach him that. And, it took me years to get him to fill his own bobbin!! Now he is proficient at both. hehehehe! He really does a good job and is dedicated to his sewing. He gets more done than I do.

Great job. Pretty colors

MargeD 10-05-2013 08:42 AM

It's a great quilt, nice that you can share your favorite pastime. Maybe you could teach him how to quilt his own quilts - just saying - then you'd have more time for your quilts. LOL.

wordpaintervs 10-05-2013 09:00 AM

I think he is awesome for making quilts. Lucky you and Lucky him.

missmay 10-05-2013 09:10 AM

He has a great eye for color, tell his it is a thumbs up quilt.

:o R-can-saw

Wow - love the quilt, both the scrappiness and the turquoise. Never would have thought to use that color but it defiinitely works!

And for me, it's R-can-saw.

Janice Thompson 10-05-2013 12:23 PM

He made a good looking quilt. It must be fun to share a hobby. The two of you make a good team. Tell him how many of us have bragged on his work:)

NUBQ 10-05-2013 07:18 PM

I REALLY like this..Is this his own design??? What a way to make your scraps really mean something!! A person can put any color X they want....

NUBQ 10-05-2013 07:24 PM

Now that I have read thru the other responses, I see it is a pattern..Can you tell me the name of it??? Thanks...

CherryPie 10-05-2013 07:30 PM

DH did an awesome job again. Love the colors and that turquoise...man!!!! Anxious to see how you end up quilting it. Tell him he's just getting better and better!!! lol Wish my DH would take an interest in quilting but not a chance. You are a very lucky lady...ya' know!!
