Awesome job. My 9 year old grandson would love it, his bedroom is done with Ohio state colors

There was some paper piecing for the triangles (learned how to do that too!). Lots of ripping as I made mistakes and lots of whoopee when I did the sewing and all the pieces came together. My trusty Featherweight from ebay was a dream to work with during the whole adventure. Retired in January from 27 years of teaching and decided to start quilting.

Where are you from in OHio? I'm currently in North Lewisburg (just west of Honda) but moving to Columbus shortly.

Can't say I'm in love with your subject (GO DAWGS) ;-) but I LOVE the quilt anyway! And the border is wonderful! Great drop and drape there.
