Blogger's Quilt Festival

 

I love everything about this quilt.  Warning:  lots of photos, the first batch were taken on my dining room table, AKA as the cutting table and design area.

The fabrics are from the first two collections from Parsons Gray.

I won one collection and purchased the other, plus some co-ordinating fabrics suggested by Pink Chalk Fabrics.

The quilt is fully reversible, the "back" features Greek Cross blocks, an easy switch up because they use same components as the Churn Dash blocks.

Now, for the backyard photos.  

Sorry, I warned you, lots of photos.

I shipped it across the country to my 17 year old grandson Brett.  It was a surprise gift.  Brett's a great guy  and a great athlete. He eats, sleeps and breathes soccer.  He's the only grandchild who hasn't ever asked for a quilt.  I'm happy to say he loved his quilt, and told his Mom, she couldn't have it.  He put it on his bed immediately, with the reverse side showing!  Of course he did, it's much more masculine.

Here's a photo of Brett, in the while shirt, playing soccer, from their local newspaper.

 And finally, a glimpse of the best quilt model, Bob.

I'm entering in the Bed Size Quilt category.
The quilt measures 92" x 67", a large twin size.

May your bobbins always be full,
