Beautiful manly quilt. I just love scrappy quilts, they take on a life of their own and never a second one. Good job.

Wonderful quilt. I love scrappy

I love your quilt. I am currently working on a scrappy Jacob's Ladder too, but the pattern is totally different from yours. I like yours better than mine, it's just the layout really that's different. Lovely quilt.

Last month I was lucky enough to see this quilt in person. The pictures, while lovely, don't truly do this quilt justice. Another wonderful scrappy Jenn and it should give great comfort to your BIL.

This is beautiful and such a special gift for your BIL. He will cherish it! Great work!

Lovely quilt. I'm a scrappy gal myself, and I love the Jacobs Ladder block. This quilt sings to me.

Wonderful! I'm sure it will be treasured!

Thank you all for your lovely comments. An additional part of the story on this is that when I was making it, the pattern called for the Jacobs Ladder blocks to be surrounded by Ohio Star blocks. After all the blocks were laid out, it didn't appeal to me at all. A very wise quilter pointed out to me (the same advice I had once given her) there was no place for the eye to rest. So I made two quilts. The Ohio Star scrappy became the priority and I love that one! This one has finally come into it's own being. Thank you again.

Jacob's ladder is one of my favorite blocks to make and your scrappy one is great.

I love scrappy quilts and yours is wonderful I love the panto graph you used for quilting it and what timing I think it is a perfect comfort quilt for your BinLaw.
