Tossed Pinwheel Nine Patch
 
1 Attachment(s)
Made this quilt for my son out of the colors of his youth. He has loved the color green ever since he was a toddler. As he got older, I introduced (coerced) him into wearing brown. Another year or 2 later I showed him (coercion again) how great the color gold went with both his brown and his greens. After that he stonewalled me....so, these are his colors wrapped up into a comfort of love.

In today's world he enjoys spending his time in the outdoors and going jeeping. I named the quilt PV 4-Wheeling ...... it fits him to a "t"!

What a lovely quilt and lovely lady. Your son must be very happy with it. I love your story about moving him into different colors. Good job getting past the green to brown and gold! They make a great color combination for someone you love. Thanks for sharing.

I sure like the pinwheel in with the 9-patch, breaks up the pattern for a very nice quilt.
