One hundred years or more from now they are going to be showing this quilt on tv or whatever medium they have then and discuss the design. If they do not know that that row was a mistake and you've labeled it, they will attribute that row to the fact that you are a man, not many men quilted at this time, and it was a quite possibly this man's way of bucking tradition!

Henry...your quilt is wonderful and it looks like the purfect cuddle blanket for tv and dvd viewing. Good job. Have to tell you, you look sooooooo much like our son everytime I see pictures of you I think this man is our son's twin! I think our son might be a bit heavier than you but the hair, the beard, everything else is the same.

I know guys quilt.... I was at wallyworld one day and a guy was there getting material for a 'trip around the world' for his latest grand-daughter!
He uses cotton for the top and instead of batting and backing uses flannel...
he said he helped his grandmother make quilts when he was a child and has been making quilts ever since..
He said he makes trip around the world because "it's so easy" :shock:
I didn't confess that I'd never made one because it looks so hard :oops:
