    That is absolutely beautiful! I have 3 boys (all grown) who were boy scouts.....2 of them were Eagle scouts. I agree with Esqmommy! They absolutely have to be shown to BSA! We have some of our sons old uniforms.....I'll have to hunt them up and see what I can do with them.

    WOW. What a way to honor your Scouts. Alot of work goes into the Scouting program for boys and their leaders. I know, as I have had 2 boys in the program and a husband who was a leader for years. Very demanding. Your quilt is a very nice way to acknowledge their accomplishments.

    very nice, i did something a little similar for my husband. after his father passed away & we were cleaning out the house, we found my husband's eagle scout stuff, so i took the shirt & all the badges & made a pillow, then used part of his marine officer's dress blue uniform jacket for the other side. i wish i had photos of it when i did it, because after 12 years on the couch, it doesn't look as good! i should have made mini quilts & framed them instead!

    I can see the Boy Scout symbol in the quilting. Terrific job.

    What a wonderful idea. And it could be used for other things - baby clothes come to mind.

    Wow! That is really something! I love how you used the BSA logo to do the quilting.
