    This is my second quilt. Perhaps it should have been my first. It was much easier and smaller!

    My Dad loves all things Oriental, so I made this for him. He is getting on a bit and is also really tight-fisted, he doesn't like to turn the heating on if he gets cold because it costs too much! So I made this ready for winter. He likes it.

    The picture didn't come out too good. I tried to show the backing fabric which was beige with bamboo shoots on it, I don't think you can really see it.

    Also it needs a darn good ironing, but he likes it and that's the main thing!
