It's a Big'un

My Strip Twist from Bonnie Hunter's pattern is back from the longarmer. She did a nice job, and it is huge. It's for my oldest grandson, hence the dark borders, I was trying to boy it up since there are flowered fabrics in there. I usually try to stay away from flowers for the males, but he is 23 and has females around, so I figured that he's old enough that it shouldn't be too bad. If he doesn't like it, I'll keep it and try again.

Looks great! I bet he'll like it... 23 is past the "eww girly" stage. Well... usually. :D

Wow, I love this quilt. Isn't it amazing the magic that happens when you put all kinds of un-matching fabrics together like this?

Stunning. Seriously. Good job!!
