An officer requested 2 "cars" quilts. I promised them before Christmas. This is the first. Was concerned with all the red fabric, but put in 3 color catchers and the red didn't run....The second one is blue...they were both supposed to be twin sized, I got a little carried away with this one it measures 60" x 72"..

That isn't too big for a twin sized quilt especially if they want anything to tuck in. I usually make my twin quilts 70" X 90" but then I don't like skimpy quilts. The guys will love your quilt.
