i just love the color combination and the pattern. how big are you going to make it - bed size or throw?

Adriane 08-29-2009 07:50 PM

Thanks, Klue! I'm going to make it a throw size, but LONG. My dad is a tall guy. :)

Gorgeous! You've got an eye for color!

SharonC 08-29-2009 08:25 PM

Love the colors and the blocks lend themselves to a man's quilt (although I'd cover up in one like it :) too).

Is the pattern called cobblestones? Lovely quilt and beaut colours.

That's great! I just love batiks ~ and they are perfect for a man's quilt! Have you seen the Stonehenge fabrics by Northcott? They would be great for a guy too.

I really love it!!

Marcia 08-30-2009 08:08 AM

Very pretty--should you say that about a "man quilt"?

littlehud 08-30-2009 08:13 AM

Oh, what pretty colors. I bet he is going to love it.

quiltnut4ever 08-30-2009 08:15 AM

Love the colors you chose, he will love it!

Lainee 08-30-2009 08:16 AM

Very nice!! Like the design and fabric...contemporary and manly.

Esqmommy 08-30-2009 08:44 AM

Very pretty, or hmmm, should I say, wow, what a "manly quilt" that is!! I love the colors and the pattern. be sure to post when it's done. Is the large piece at the bottom going to be the backing?

CajunQuilter2 08-30-2009 12:47 PM

Very nice!!! I see your inspector is on the job. :)

gaigai 08-30-2009 12:54 PM

Here is an update! I have the top fully pieced. It is a pattern from "Batiks: Inspired from Bali." Great book!

I'm going to baste it tomorrow. I purposefully made it more LONG than anything since my dad is lanky. :)



All four of my babies had to be in the picture to "help."

I love the batiks!! This is so pretty... but in a manly sort of way! :lol:

Teacup 08-30-2009 06:43 PM

Great project for a guy! I'm sure he'll enjoy it.

sewjoyce 08-31-2009 05:57 AM

Great quilt! Love all of your little inspectors. Are you sure you're gonna be able to get it away from them to give to your dad??


reneebobby 08-31-2009 06:20 AM

Very nice dad will surely love

Jeannie 09-02-2009 05:07 AM

I love the colors. You dad will love it. I have a 99 year old MIL and I think I will make her one! What is the pattern and is it easy?

RedGarnet222 09-02-2009 06:48 AM

Batiks are so perfect for this lap top, they are so interesting to look at on thier own. He is going to love it!

To get off the subject just a little, do you play those instruments in the background? I love music in the home.

And I have to say how I just love that black and white kitty with the glowing green eyes.
Edited to ask how many kitties do you have?

CindyBee 09-02-2009 02:47 PM

I really like this contemporary quilt and especially in the batiks. Can you share the pattern?

bearpaw 09-02-2009 03:44 PM

Love the quilt - I'm sure your Dad will love it to!

Great team of quilt inspectors!

judee0624 09-02-2009 08:14 PM
