Quilt for the deer hunter
 

My new son in law loves deer hunting, so I decided to use this panel for a lap quilt. I did t want to do an all-over design, so I outlined the deer, then did some amateur thread painting of the deer, the reeds, and the trees to provide more quilting. For the sky, I added in some snowflakes. Luckily the batting is warm and natural so I should have enough quilting. The binding and the backing are the same black/gray winter bark pattern as the edge of the panel. I just did straight line quilting on the border.

This is so pretty. I love the panel.

In 2010 I made two of our Grandsons deer quilts. They both had taken up hunting because their Fathers hunt.
Not sure if they even use them.

Great ideas on the quilting. I really like the snowflakes.

nicely done

I have a son who would love this quilt. It is lovely.

What a nice gift! Great quilt

Well done and very thoughtful of you.

Super quilt. BrendaK

Love the snowflakes, awesome gift for a hunter.

Soooooo cute.

My men would just love that......

Beautiful! Love the snowflakes! Where did you find the snowflake quilting pattern?

Thanks for the nice words. As for the snowflakes, I just free motion quilted them. I needed something in the sky, and thought the snowflakes would be better than clouds, my other go-to sky design.
