    Default DH's Journey to Arkansas quilt

    After I taught my DH how to sew, all he would make was quilts with 2.5 inch blocks. He has made about 80 of those tops. I never could convince him that there were other patterns out there that he could make using those blocks. Well, I finally convinced him. Here is his first Journey to Arkansas quilt top. For some reason, I think I see a lot of them in his future!! What do you think?

    He does a great job and has a good sense of color. You could also nudge him towards the irish chains too.
