    I only made this 3 blocks x 5, as I think there's 60 pieces in each block! :roll: So I am quite proud of myself how almost all the points matched! :wink:

    But anyways, it's big enough for him to use on his couch, and he's 6'1. He's quite pleased with it as it's nice, and no girly fabrics! lol!!!! :D :D

    Sorry I had to take these with my camera phone as my oldest son is trying to fix my camera.

    Oh - forgot to add captions! The first picture is before quilting.

    And did you ever count how many hours you have in a quilt? I never have, but the binding alone on this one was almost 3 Lifetime channel movies worth. lol!!!!! :D

    That turned out beautifully! Gentleman's Fancy is one of my very favorite patterns. He looks very pleased with it, too. Wonderful job!

    Very nice. He looks like he liked it. Love the colors. Very "manly" colors.

    I wanted to make one for my son in red, black and white, but he said, nooooo. I want red, black and blue. So those are the perfect colors for a young man. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
