    Default Wheel Chair Comforter By -----Jingle
    This is a wheel chair comforter I made for a 27 year old. He dove into a swimming pool a couple years ago and is now paralyzed. I hope this will be the right size for him. It is 32 x 40". I hope he will like it. I don't know him. My Husband knows his Dad and will give it to the Dad tomorrow.

    #1 is the front

    #2 is the back.

    Nice masculine lap quilt. So sad but maybe someday the will have a cure for spinal injuries.

    What a nice thing for you to do! It looks perfect for a guy! I like how you rounded the corners, I have done that to a few baby quilts so the pointed corners didn't poke the babies in the eye plus I didn't have to fiddle with those sometimes hard to do corners on the binding.

    He's going to love it!!! The rounded corners are a real nice touch, less likely to get caught in the machinery.

    Looks good for the job. People who are wheel chair mobile are often chilly even when those around them are not.
