quilt for my Dad
 

Dad has always been on the go, and is finding it very difficult confined to a nursing home setting. thought this might cheer him up

I would really emphasize a well attached label. One of my sister's quilts walked. My brother's only was returned because of the label.

Constant reminders of being loved are very important.

I agree with the label suggestions. I love this off set square in a square pattern. Since you made it, he is going to treasure it always.

ya already thought of that....I used to work in a seniors home years ago......attached a label with his full name on the back.............but yes I agree its amazing how these things just grow legs, lol

Very attractive, masculine quilt! Should perk up his room.

Your dad will love it. My dad is going through the same thing.

Very nice and manly.

Since labels can "come off", wouldn't it be nice to have family pictures in each of the off-set squares. It would be less likely to get lost that way. It's a beautiful quilt and I'm sure your dad will love it.

very nice job!!!

That's a great, comfy looking quilt. He will love it.

Nice quilt - sure your dad will love it!

Handsome quilt for him!

Very nice...I like this pattern.

Great masculine quilt for your Dad. I am sure he will love it especially because you made it for him. It is difficult to see our parents forced to change their lives and slow down. Good that you are there for him.

looks so comfy

I stitched square letters in couple quilts in shade darker in one of the blocks of a quilt along the edges. You can go lighter or darker. Have also made a pocket out of same fabric as the square and have an attached label tucked into the pocket.

Wonderful manly quilt for your father! He will love it and enjoy using it. Great job.
