Tigers are GRRRREEAAATTT!!
 
3 Attachment(s)
Saw this fabric for $3/yd on website and ordered 10 yards because have 6 grandkids and their school mascot is a tiger so figured it might come in handy. The three older girls run track and spring is a bit nippy so made these utilitarian quilts which hopefully they will use to keep from getting goosebumps and red legs. Hopefully they are cool enough to be considered for use.

First is 3-D quilt with fussy-cut centers. Second is warm wishes. Third is a combination of all and used "spare parts" from the fussy-cut. It is for my little one who is a free-spirit and so it hopefully will suit her personality. Go Tigers!

Your quilts are GGGRREEEAATTT!!!!! They would be very popular down this way in South Louisiana.

Wonderful quilts and to think their mascot is a tiger! The icing on the cake was $3.00 a yd. for the fabric. Everybody wins :)

Forgot to add that the backing is a cross between minky and fleece and it is tiger-stripes and it was $6/yd so figured I did pretty well. I had seen some that I really liked but it was $18/yd so I passed.

OMG - could you please PM me with the website where you ordered the fabric??? My kids went to a high school here in MO that was the Tigers and then went on to MIZZOU - home of the TIGERS. So, they will always be a tiger!!!!! Nikki in MO

Yes!...and in our hometown. The high school mascot is the tiger and the elementary school, the tiger cub.
Goooo Tigers! [Love your quilts!]

Funny you should say that, I took them to guild last night for show and tell and one of the ladies said, paraphrasing, If my grandkids see those and want some, you will be in BIG trouble!

You know, I think it was Hancock of Paducah. Not 100% sure since I order from different places, but they do have things in this price range and I think are having an EOY sale right now with some at 3.99. When they first post, they have a good selection, but that can get whittled down pretty fast I have noticed.

Very nice job. Yes, it will be admired and viewed with envy I am sure. Nice to finish projects!

Teddybear Lady 12-12-2014 07:09 PM

Amazing how the same fabric can be used to make different looking quilts. I love all three of them. Great job!:thumbup:

lynnie 12-12-2014 08:40 PM

what a great idea, came out cute. I'm sure they will be loved, and others will be jealous
