    Default A Chevron Quilt for GD

    Well, I always said I would not do another Chevron, as I don't like to double up on quilt patterns. Well my GD was asking who was getting the lap quilts that I have been working on. Then she stated that her queen size was when she got her big bed, and that was when she was 3yrs.old. Oh time flies... I told her right then to look at patterns and tell me the colors... Well she chose a chevron and I wasn't going to deny her. So here it is, it got bigger then a usual lap quilt almost a queen. My Hubby says I can't make a small one... So here it is Machine pieced and hand quilted.

    Awww, that's so nice of you to make another one even if you didn't want to. I'm the same way. I get bored after a particular pattern.
    It came out great!

    It's a beauty! Big chevrons are one of my favorite quilt styles.
