    Hi, I have enjoyed reading and looking at pictures. This is the first time I post pictures. I made this quilt for one of my nephew's graduation 2008. He came to visit us in 2007, and all he wanted to do was go to the beach and try to surf. I found this fabric at my LQS and it was so him. This was also the first time I used jean fabric. I think he liked it, cuz when I called him to ask if he stilled had the quilt and would send me some pictures .I bet it was not five minutes and I had this pictures.
    Thanks

    I used a block with a car like he drives and he plays the drums

    Thanks, I'm hoping to be able to post more pictures. I send emails to some of the people I gave quilts too. Told them I wanted to start and album with the quilts. Big mistake in my part not taking pictures. And yes told them I wanted to post them here too.

    That's a great quilt. I can see why he loves it. What a complement to you that he still uses it. Thanks for sharing.
