Never thought I'd finish this one for DH.
Been working on & off for about 5 months.
FINALLY finished it this afternoon.
Didn't really have enough floor space to smooth it all out. :roll:

I LOVE this! Can you tell us how you qulited it please? I love how in the choice of colours it is understated rather than over stated, love the scrappy boarder as well.

I'm speechless, it's sooo beautiful! You should be so proud of yourself! My hero for sure!

Beautiful Quilt! You didn't happen to stand on the back of your couch to get that pic did you?? Now what would you do if you fell and broke a quilting arm? :-)

watson's mom 03-29-2010 05:44 PM

Beautiful quilt, and the colours are just right, not too bright but not dull. love anything with stars. Bet hubby loves it.

littlehud 03-29-2010 06:25 PM

That is a wonderful quilt. Those fabrics and colors are perfect for a guy. Your stars are beautiful. What perfect points. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

Marcia 03-29-2010 06:35 PM

I love it--it looks like an antique quilt. The border is perfect for it too.

I did all over stippling on my Juki & Grace frame. ;)

Thanks everyone for the kind words. :)
Gave it to DH when he got home from work last night.
He loved it!
He had said he wanted a quilt that was antique looking,
I think it's pretty close.

I did stand on the seat of the couch to get the picture.
I didn't think about falling and possibly breaking my quilting arm.
That would be TRAGIC! :lol: :lol:

Super! Five months isn't all that long, some take much much longer for me they do anyway.

Very nice. I love the border. I'm sure it felt really good to finally finish it. Yahoo!

earthwalker 03-30-2010 06:21 PM

It's really "manly" without being dull or predictable. Definitely has that antique look ... you did a wonderful job.
