Hi,

the name of this pattern is "Birdwalk", and you can find it in a book titled "Layers of Charm". You can find it on: www.minnesotacharms.com There are 14 patterns in the book and I just did another one of the patterns for myself. Really quick and easy to do!!

Your son has a flair for coordinating colors. It is a striking quilt along with being a very masculine quilt. However, I believe SID would not compliment his excellent choices. Either what nativetexan suggests or light meandering could be better. Belles

Me too -- I like the simple cross hatch. However, ask your son if he has a preference as he might like more of a pattern.

I have no idea how it should be quilted.... I just wanted to say that I love it and the colours are just right for the male of the species!

Hugs

I think it does need a little more than a stitch in a ditch.
I think so as well. If you use a taupe or neutral color 50wt thread it will pretty much blend in.
It's a really pretty quilt!! Er, I mean handsome! What is the name of the pattern please?

First gorgeous quilt! Second I think whatever you do will look great as long as it's a simple design.

Great colors in this quilt and whatever you decide it will only enhance its beauty more!

Check the label on the batting, and let that be your guide, and go for it. :-)
