I made this quilt for my younger son Preston. The quilt was a block of the month from Oklahoma Quiltworks in Oklahoma City and is made from batiks. I used a thinner batting called Quilter's Dream so it might be cool enough to use year around. I used one block to embroider his name, birthdate and birthplace but I just realized that I forgot to put a tag on the back with my name and year of completion! I've always hand-quilted my quilts and this is the first time I've used my sewing machine to quilt so it was a learning experience!

That's beautiful, Vanessa. I love Quiltworks and also visit Patchwork Place in Norman. There's also a newer shop on N May Ave a little past 63rd I think, It's call the Savage Quilter, nice also. Wish we had more to visit.

I love this Oklahoma quilt!! Yes, I am an Okie now living in WA but you can't take the country out of the girl no matter her age!
My dad's name was Preston, too and he would have liked that quilt too. Especially the bucking horse since he was a bronc buster most all his life. Truly a great quilt and you did an awesome job on it!

I love your quilt. I'm a transplant in GA, but was born & grew up in Lawton, OK. I absolutely love your "Sooner Wagon". Love it all, but that really stood out to me.
You are so fortunate to be close to a Quilting place to take classes.

What a great guy quilt, I'm sure Preston loves it!! I have a grandson named Preston, he's 10, how old is your Preston?
