    Default Finished the 3 quilt tops

    A customer asked me to mke 3 quilts, as much alike as I could, for her 3 grandsons for Christmas. She liked this pattern but wanted it throw size, so I had o resize everything down to 59%, as the pattern was queen size. I still have to quilt and bind them, but I thought they came out cute. My delima now is the quilting pattern and what color thread????? Any thoughs from this fantastic QB?

    They are great, I have the pattern in stash for the future. I would bind them in 3 different colors, so they would be individualized but other than that u r on you own, but please show when you finish. Love them.

    It's a wonderful quilt and your more homespun fabrics are great in it.

    Great job! As far as quilting, I am picturing these boys as being still rather young? Say 10yrs or so? If that is the case, I think I would go for an all over stipple in and around all the applique bits. As far as thread goes, what about a variegated in the same tones as the top?
