What a delightful and original quilt. I love that you chose a sashing fabric that looked like space. So totally fits the sci fi/space theme of 12 favorite comic books. Thank you so much for sharing the info on the digital transfer process as well. So I have to ask, did you disclose to your BIL why you needed copies of the covers of his most prized comic books? Did he know a quilt was forthcoming? The sentiment and little space ship on the label along with the digital code to see the documentation of creating it. You didn't leave any little detail out, which makes it even more special. Please let us know Guy's reaction to this MARVELOUS quilt.
Finally, it makes me sad that ANYONE would feel intimidated sharing quilts on this board. We have all skill levels here and I have never, ever seen any post on any quilt that was anything but encouraging and thoughtful. I just don't understand why anyone would feel their quilt isn't worthy of sharing. But I am so glad you bit the bullet and DID share. How sad it would have been if none of us got to see this spectacularly original, unique and perfectly executed quilt. Thank you for sharing and don't ever feel intimidated again!

now that's really "cool"! It's very personal too. love that.. I am going to do some research on the whole transfer thing. My daughter kept monthly photos of both her boys for their first years. (their daddy was deployed). You know the ones where the baby is in a 12 month onsie (same onsie for each photo) laying next to the same stuffed bear for each photo, to show his growth . . . and those 24 photos would make 2 great quilts for the boys. hmmm you have jut started my wheels turning! Your quilt has great colors and the subject is dear to his heart. great job!! and feline fanatic-well said!!
