scrappy quilt for dad
 
2 Attachment(s)
Well I just finished this scrappy quilt for my dad. This is the quilt that I was going to use warm and natural batting on - I had the top glue basted to the batting and my sister was pushing me to make it warmer because dad gets cold. So I doubled the warm and natural batting. Everything seems good so far - - I just hope that its not too heavy for dad to move it around; Its a throw size to use in his recliner

He grew up in Germany so I had my cousin send me some pictures from his home town. I had Spoonflower print them on fat quarters and I used them on the back.... so he will have some of his old home town with him.

So many mistakes!!!! please be kind I did the best that I could. I don't think dad will notice the errors :)

It's really wonderful, and made with love, how could that be less than perfect? I'm sure he'll get great use from it in the winter!

That quilt is beautiful & filled with memories on the back. He will love it & appreciate the love you put in to making it.

A Labour of Love for sure! What a fun idea to put those photos on the back as well.... a perfect cuddle quilt! A hug from his daughter when she's not around.

You have come up with a wonderful "Dads Quilt". I love it and I'll bet he will too. The colors he will love. Besides that, he will be warm under it in his chair.
