    Default Finally Noticed!

    I gave my brother a quilt a year ago for their new home. He was an Air Force lifer and plays golf all the time. So I had quilted it with these logos. He uses the quilt all the time on the sofa. He emailed me yesterday saying that he laid out the quilt back side up and just noticed the quilting! He was duly impressed ... Finally! LOL

    Nancy, what appropriate quilting. He will probably use it back side up. LOL

    Perfect quilting for a golfer. Must be a man thing not to notice for such a long time. :-)

    LOL! too funny! I made a string quilt for g-boys to use when they visit and decided to put it on backing up cause I'd worked hard to put different "boy" motifs in each block--my son was the most impressed!

    I’m sure he has enjoyed the quilt during that time and he probably would have noticed the quilt design if he or his wife was a quilter...but it’s nice to know he is appreciative of it now. Great job Nan.
