Here is the quilt I made for my DH. He brought the black fabric back from Africa when he was there this summer. The rest of the coordinating fabric we got at a LQS. He is quite tall--6'8"-- so I added extra fabric strips at the top and bottom. I had someone else do the quilting, but I did everything else. What do you think?
