Wow ! How neat ! And I love that fact that it grew legs and walked away ! LOL.. Doesn't that make you feel good?

Great job! I can't blame him for claiming it!

Barb M 10-19-2008 05:42 PM

Wow, great job Ruth!!! :)

Great job -- I'm not surprised you didn't get time to take pictures of the back before it was claimed....

gcathie 10-19-2008 08:34 PM

he sure will be warm and him claiming it is awesome....now if you could just get him to smile....(tell him you just passed gas ...that always brings a smile..)

PamH 10-19-2008 08:36 PM

You did a great job on that. I don't blame him for staking his claim

reneebobby 10-20-2008 02:32 AM

lol isn't it funny when the kids go that is mine, and I would have claimed it too. Great job.

Bevanger 10-20-2008 04:38 AM

That is neat. He sure looks like he's loving it. GREAT JOB!

Izy 10-20-2008 05:38 AM

Well Ruth it isn't surprising he snaffled it in double quick time, that's just the job for a lad!!, I bet that was hard on your hands with all the snipping :D

Twinmommy070502 10-20-2008 06:05 AM

Oh I love it - its such a boy quilt.
Great Job!!

I love the courdroy Idea for the back too - I love Courdroy so snugglly.
I have been saving all of my sons worn out jeans and cutting up the usable fabric from them - cute oshkosh pockets and stuff since he was little to make him a jean rag quilt for when he goes away to university or moves from home - I am so going to put coudroy on the back!


My Dad recently passed away as well and I aksed my mom to send me all of his jeans so I can make a special gift for his 9 grandchildren - so I am learning so many great ideas here too!
Love it
Sheila

In the middle of the quilt is one square that the seams are on the back not the front. I was going to fix it but it would require talkin it apart in several rows, so i am leaving it. Mason hasn't noticed and I didn't till it was completely done lol :oops: :oops: :oops: :wink:

live2teach 10-20-2008 12:04 PM

Great job and i love that fabric!

shellyp 10-20-2008 12:07 PM

Ahhhh...another loved quilt. :D

annmarie 10-20-2008 08:55 PM

Ruth - you know you dun good when a quilt is claimed that fast!!! You'll just have to make another for yourself LOL :wink:

Joan 10-21-2008 07:53 AM

Yea, the look on Mason's face says, "It's mine and don't think anything else!". How nice that your work is so appreciated (and desired). It is beautiful. Making a rag quilt is on my short list, too!

nanabirdmo 10-22-2008 04:30 AM

Ooo Ruth, Such a great quilt. My grandkids love the rag quilts. They are so warm and snuggly.

GailG 10-23-2008 11:51 AM

Rag quilts can be heavy. Mine is denim. I like to lay it over my feet in the winter because of the weight. We don't need much covering, but I still like the weight. That makes is feel like winter. (Weird, huh)

Diane007 10-20-2012 08:23 AM

yes.. a nice warm looking quilt.
Always love to see what people do for a male ...
