    I am planning to make my daughter's boyfriend a quilt for Christmas..... there are three specific teams that he likes, and I wonder if I can incorporate them all into one? What are your ideas on that.....Would love to see anyone's pictures to help me with ideas....

    Thanks!

    My DH is a pittsburgh steelers fan, we're from Il so I incoporated chicago bears, plus the NO Saints. Here's link of my pic I posted. Hope it helps.

    You can put anything you want into a quilt - what sports does he like?

    I don't think there is a sport that he doesn't like, (haha) but I'm going to concentrate on Dallas Cowboys/Texas Rangers/Dallas Mavericks......my daugther lives in Dallas now, as well as her boyfriend.....so I'll do the Dallas for him, then make one with Saints/Rangers/Mavericks for her.....with Saints on one side, then split Rangers and Mavericks on the other....What do you think? Would love to hear everyone's opinions!!!!

    You should have no problem finding NFL fabric, but the NBA and MLB all I have been able to find for a few years now is fleece.

    Or do you plan to make your own fabric? I was hoping to find bandanas since I could not find it by the yard, but couldn't even find them. Or you could do a T-shirt quilt if he has some old t-shirts you can have, or maybe you could find some shirts at a thrift store.
