After I made my first quilt, my DH wanted me to make a quilt for him . He picked out the fabric from my new little stash. I thought I'd try the Fun and Done quilt as you go method. It wasn't so fun. I felt pressured from my inexperience and wanting to make a really nice quilt for my DH. Did I mention I don't work well under pressure? Anyway, he loves his quilt. I named it "Bear Trails" because I call him my Bear, and it looks like pathways or trails. Perhaps I should have named it "Bare Trials".
I'm making a pillow to match. I gave him the quilt on our wedding anniversary. Can't wait to start on the next quilt!

Wow! You guys are fast in replying! Thank you so much for the compliments. It gives me incentive to start new ones. It does match the manly den sofa, doesn't it?! It is the Fun and Done pattern called Woven Wonder Quilt from Prairie Sky Quilting.

The label. I hope you can see it.

Great quilt, I love the pattern as well, don't think I've seen it before. It's a pattern to remember (as if I don't have enough patterns to remember for ....... whenever LOL)
