    Default Denim Quilt

    I made this quilt for a friend who is a cancer survivor and is always cold. He mentioned in the Summer that he had seen them before and thought they would be heavy and warm.

    Well, at over 6 lbs, it's heavy enough and I put flannel on the back so it should be warm. It is a big throw at 68 x 82.

    He was thrilled with it.

    Great work and size, too. Nice when you remember something they like or commented about during the year.

    Aww, I bet he was just tickled to get that! Such a thoughtful gift, especially considering his earlier comment.

    Hope he enjoys it with good health for many years to come.

    It looks great and the flannel will make it snuggly

    Ditto to all the fun comments from above and let me tell you how much I love the trim you picked for it! Backing it with flannel was brilliant! Thank you for posting!
