Super big block
 
1 Attachment(s)
A friend's high school senior son is being treated for cancer. I offered a quilt to help with the chemo. His father said, "remember he's been a star on the football and basketball teams". We agreed that I would give him a quilt immediately, with a sports themed quilt to follow. The boy will give the original quilt to someone undergoing treatment with him. I have now gotten the fabric and made the first block, based on a wonderful one I saw here, but enlarged to work with the print size. The block is actually 29"square. The quilt will be 6 blocks plus borders. The school colors are black, red and white.

I'm certain that he will appreciate it. I've been told that the rooms where they do the chemo are cold and this quilt will be like a hug every time he uses it.
